Eisenberg & Associates is a California employment law firm that talks with expecting and recently postpartum employees in Santa Clarita about workplace treatment they believe was unfair, and about how California law may relate to what they experienced.
An employer may cross a legal line when it makes decisions about a worker, or treats her differently, because she is expecting, has delivered a baby, or is dealing with a health condition that stems from pregnancy.
California’s legal protections reach people who currently hold a job as well as those seeking one. They can apply to the hiring process, firings, pay, career advancement, day-to-day tasks, the conditions someone works under, and other parts of employment.
Warning signs are frequently quieter than people assume.
Remarks an employee could encounter include:
Eisenberg & Associates speaks with Santa Clarita workers who are dealing with unfavorable treatment tied to pregnancy, offensive conduct related to pregnancy, rejected requests for workplace adjustments, unlawful job loss, retaliation, or complications involving pregnancy and medical leave.
Discrimination during pregnancy can be tough to recognize.
An employer may speak openly about a worker’s pregnancy. Or the change may come gradually: evaluations turn critical, scheduled shifts shrink, key assignments go to someone else, or she hears that her role no longer exists.
Our attorneys at Eisenberg & Associates study the whole sequence of events instead of one isolated moment.
We can help you sort out whether your employer’s actions may have affected your legal protections and what avenues could be available.
