Legal Options for Pregnancy Discrimination in Burlington County, NJ
If you believe your employer has discriminated against you due to pregnancy, your first move should be to speak with an attorney. The right legal guidance early on can shape the entire course of your case.
After a free legal consultation, an attorney can walk you through your legal options and whatever steps that need to be taken to fight for justice. Do not guess your way through the process. Contacting a pregnancy discrimination lawyer gives you a clear understanding of your rights and what to do next.
What is the Statute of Limitations for Discrimination Cases?
Timing matters when it comes to filing a discrimination claim. In most New Jersey cases, workers have two years from the date of the discriminatory act to file a claim under the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination. Federal claims filed through the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission must be submitted within 300 days.
Since deadlines can vary based on the details of your situation, reaching out to an attorney as soon as possible can help preserve your legal options.
What Should I Do If My Employer Denies My Requests for Reasonable Accommodations?
New Jersey law requires employers to provide reasonable accommodations for pregnancy-related conditions. These may include more frequent breaks, modified job duties, temporary transfers, or time off for medical appointments.
If your requests are ignored or met with retaliation, start documenting everything in writing. Keep records of emails, internal messages, and conversations. Then, speak with a qualified employment attorney. These steps will strengthen your position if legal action becomes necessary.
