I’ve been receiving a disturbing (well, disturbing from my perspective) number of hits from people searching for resources about being pregnant and laid-off. I am going to list the important resources that I know about in one place:
- Facts about Pregnancy Discrimination
- How to File a Charge of Pregnancy Discrimination
- Pregnant Workers Report Growing Discrimination and Pregnancy Discrimination Suits on the Rise
In short, in the United States, you can definitely be legally laid-off when you are pregnant. But you can’t be laid-off because you’re pregnant. It’s a critical distinction.
