Pregnancy discrimination

October 19, 2014 / By Hudson Fusion

The Pregnancy Discrimination Act (PDA) of 1978 forbids discrimination based on pregnancy when it comes to any aspect of employment: hiring, firing, pay, job assignments, promotions, layoff, training, fringe benefits, and any other term or condition of employment. The EEOC has enforcement guidance on this issue. This term, the Supreme Court will hear the case of a pregnant UPS worker who was restricted by her doctor from lifting during pregnancy but who was not given another job assignment as an accommodation. A decision could be as late as the end of June 2015.

Don’t forget … for year-round tax planning and critical business strategy, you’ll want your copy of J. K. Lasser’s Guide to Self-Employment: Taxes, Tips and Money-Saving Strategies for Schedule C Filers - available on Amazon!
