Pregnancy Discrimination In Florida And Family And Medical Leave Act

Planning for a family and raising your children can be as challenging as it is rewarding. You may have always known that juggling your career and your family life would involve extra work, but you likely never expected it to put you on an uneven playing field in your career.

No employer can legally discriminate against you because of your plans to have children or because of an existing pregnancy, but many still engage in discriminatory behavior despite laws prohibiting pregnancy discrimination, the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and other legislation that regulates it.

Legal Help For Florida Employees

If you suspect you are being treated unfairly at work because of your pregnancy, or if you believe you have been passed over for a job because of your plans to have children or because you have young children at home, contact us at Gallup Auerbach, with offices conveniently located in Hollywood and Boca Raton, Florida.

FMLA Claims And Retaliation From Employers

Dana M. Gallup and Jacob K. Auerbach have dedicated their careers to helping employees defend their rights and ensuring employers adhere to employment law guidelines. With more than 30 years of combined experience, they can determine if and when pregnancy discrimination occurs in the workplace.

You may be the victim of pregnancy discrimination if you have experienced or noticed:

  • Discrepancies in pay between you and a fellow employee who has similar experience, job duties and merits at work
  • Unwillingness to provide required time off for pregnancy according to FMLA regulations
  • Hostility or harassment from co-workers, supervisors or managers
  • Demotion, disciplinary action or wrongful termination once you made your pregnancy apparent to your employer
