What Qualifies as Pregnancy Discrimination?

Employers cannot treat employees unfairly due to pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions. Examples of unlawful actions include:

  • Wrongful termination or refusal to hire due to pregnancy
  • Failure to provide reasonable accommodations for pregnancy-related needs
  • Forcing an employee to take unpaid leave instead of offering accommodations
  • Altering job responsibilities or reducing hours due to pregnancy
  • Denying pregnancy-related medical leave
  • Retaliation against employees who report discrimination

Pregnancy discrimination can occur in any industry, from healthcare to retail, and often overlaps with other forms of discrimination or harassment. If you believe you have been a victim in the workplace, contact us to discuss your options.

Understanding Reasonable Accommodations for Pregnancy

Employers are legally required to provide reasonable accommodations that enable pregnant employees to continue working. These can include:

  • Modified work duties
  • More frequent breaks
  • Temporary schedule adjustments
  • Assistance with physically demanding tasks

It is unlawful for an employer to deny or punish an employee for requesting or using accommodations.

Laws Protecting Pregnant Workers

State and federal laws safeguard pregnant employees from discrimination, including:

  • New Jersey Law Against Discrimination: Prohibits pregnancy-based discrimination and requires accommodations.
  • Pregnancy Discrimination Act: Mandates fair treatment of pregnancy-related conditions.
  • Pregnant Workers Fairness Act: Strengthens protection by requiring accommodations for pregnant employees.
  • FMLA & NJFLA: Protect employees from maternity leave discrimination.

If you believe your rights have been violated, our lawyers can help. Call today for a free consultation regarding your case.

Workplace Protections for Breastfeeding and Pumping

Employers must also comply with breastfeeding and pumping laws, which require them to provide a private space (not a bathroom) for nursing mothers to pump and an appropriately reasonable break time to express milk. Violating these rights is considered a form of pregnancy discrimination, and employees have the right to take legal action.

Retaliation for Reporting Pregnancy Discrimination

It is illegal for employers to retaliate against employees for reporting discrimination or requesting accommodations. Forms of retaliation include:

  • Wrongful termination or demotion
  • Pay cuts or reduced hours
  • Unwarranted disciplinary action
  • Creating a hostile work environment

If you have experienced retaliation, our attorneys can help you take legal action to hold your employer accountable.
