My wife is soon to have our baby and will be going on maternity leave. Why don't dads also get some leave time to be with their family? I know some companies are starting to do this, but it should be a common policy across the board. I want to enjoy this time with my newborn and help my wife but my my company doesn't allow this. Who is with me!

Came into work on Monday and my boss called me into his office. he told me my work productivity has been low in the past month. I can't help my it because I have morning sickness so much recently with being pregnant. I still come to work even tho i feel like crap because I know I need to still do my work. Can i file for discrimination?

I've been working as a Production Supervisor and Manager for over 5 years and recently was a Plant Manager for a brief period of 4 months. Left bc it was not a safe environment and the owners made it clear it wasn't going to be changed by me. 1 week after leaving, wife found out she's pregnant. For 3 months I've been looking for anything decent. Been to multiple sit downs and phone interviews with no luck. I went from rising star to job leper. Our savings are depleted and we're close to being evicted. I'm ready to try McDonald's at this point. Not sure if it's me or the economy but despite my resume and skills, nothing is popping up. Any ideas or thoughts?

My husband and I found out I was pregnant in May. We were due in November. We found out that I had Gestational Diabetes and high really high blood pressure. My doctor put me on a time restriction with me only being able to work 6 hours at the most. My manager made the comments that if anything happens to me reguarding my job or my baby's health, that it is not her problem because she didnt tell me to get pregnant. With that being said, the hospital that I work for terminated me while I was out on Materniry Leave. No one stayed in contact with me and when I took my Drs note having the date that I was to return to work, that was when the guy from HR told me that I was termintated.

I was fired from taco bell, a couple weeks after o was hired because he claimed he didn't know I was pregnant and if he did he wouldn't have hired me. I'm looking for a good lawyer in Westfield In, or a way I can start my law suit.

I was let go from my last 2 jobs. One just didn't like me after a year and the other let me go after I told them I was pregnant. Neither can I use as a reference but should I put them on my resume? Because of these jobs letting me go I can't seem to find a good company that pays a livable wage. I have an education and job experience. The jobs I've held prior were great jobs that will give me a good reference. How do I move forward?

I recently had my first job interview after giving birth to my son. The interview was for a part-time cashier position with a big retail chain. I was instantly able to establish a good rapport with the manager and I felt the interview was going well until my year and a half long unemployment gap came into question. I explained that the time off was due to my pregnancy and decision to be a stay at home mom for the first 6 after the delivery. He said they have had problems in the past hiring back to work moms because they leave the job shortly after getting hired claiming they miss being at home with their baby’s. I didn’t the job. Is this a form of discrimination for being a new mom? What could I have said to the manager to overcome his concern?

Hi I really need a job bcuz I am about to be a momma and if y'all may help me out please do

Not sure if I have been discriminated based on national origin or pregnancy or harassment from my boss including HR. They are saying my position will be terminated at the end of next year or early 2018 which is right before my visa expiry and few months after my delivery due date in march 2017. am the only person who has been terminated and i was told due to budget issues, position has been terminated. no performance issues or no complaints against me. when i asked why only me, all they can tell me is that its highly confidential and they cannot give any more information other than budget issues due to change in business direction.

i dont know whom to approach..its very stressful to me to have all these conversation during my pregnancy. even HR says they are being fair to me by giving one year notice. I tried contacting eeoc but i didnot get any reply..i tried to approach couple of attorney in this area but i didnot get any solid help from anyone so far.

if anyone go through this message, please advice whom i can contact

Thank You.

Leslie, I believe I sent you some info regarding your situation' look into (US Dept of Labor) and key in Pregnancy Act, then 'click on' Major Federal Laws for workers who are Pregnant or Nursing. You can get more info to help you retrieve your job back or file a legal law suit against your former employer, don't just 'Give up', take advantage of it, go back to school, study law or something, get a student loan...
