Pregnancy Discrimination

Under the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, passed by Congress in 1978, an employer violates the law if it intentionally discriminates against pregnant employees or maintains a policy that adversely affects pregnant employees. The PDA covers pregnancy, childbirth or related medical conditions, including abortion.

We fight pregnancy discrimination against women and we protect fathers’ rights to enforce paternity leave entitlement, which is guaranteed under the Family and Medical Leave Act.
