Pregnancy Discrimination in California
Under California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act, it is unlawful for an employer to discriminate in terms of compensation, conditions, or privileges of employment because of pregnancy. An employee disabled by pregnancy is entitled to up to 16 weeks of disability leave. After a pregnancy disability leave, an employer must return the affected employee to the same position.
If you feel you have been the victim of unlawful discrimination, you must contact an employment law attorney immediately. The experienced attorneys at The Gomez Law Firm will evaluate your potential case at no charge.
