Pregnancy is a life-changing experience—but for far too many employees, it becomes a turning point for unfair treatment at work. Being pregnant or planning to become pregnant should never result in discipline, demotion, loss of opportunities, or termination. California law provides some of the strongest workplace protections in the country, yet violations still occur every day.
Salusky Law Group represents employees throughout Los Angeles and Long Beach who have experienced pregnancy discrimination, retaliation, or denial of legally required accommodations. If your employer treated you differently because of pregnancy, childbirth, or a related medical condition, our attorneys are prepared to protect your rights and pursue accountability.
What Is Pregnancy Discrimination?
Pregnancy discrimination occurs when an employer takes negative action against an employee because she is pregnant, intends to become pregnant, has a pregnancy-related medical condition, or recently gave birth. Both federal and California laws prohibit this type of conduct at every stage of employment—from hiring to termination.
Unlawful pregnancy discrimination can involve:
- Being fired or laid off after disclosing a pregnancy
- Losing hours, pay, or job responsibilities
- Being denied promotions or advancement opportunities
- Refusal to provide reasonable accommodations
- Pressure to take leave when it is not medically necessary
- Retaliation for asserting workplace rights
If pregnancy played any role in an adverse employment decision, legal protections may apply.
