The Pregnancy Discrimination Act (PDA) prohibits employers with a minimum of 15 employees from: Refusing to hire a woman because of pregnancy. Firing or forcing a woman to leave her position because of pregnancy.
Under Washington State Law Against Discrimination (WLAD) pregnant persons are entitled to pregnancy disability leave based on their individual condition for recovery, as determined by their health care provider (generally 6-8 weeks) and includes any period of disability prior to delivery.
Proving pregnancy discrimination requires more than a victim's claim. There must be evidence that the employer acted against the individual exclusively based on their pregnancy. That evidence must be clear, inarguable, and documented.
An employer must provide a woman an unpaid leave of absence for the period of time that she is sick or temporarily disabled because of pregnancy or childbirth. Employers must treat a woman on pregnancy related leave the same as other employees on leave for sickness or other temporary disabilities.
Under the Pregnancy Discrimination Act – a federal law – employers with 15 or more employees must make reasonable accommodations for a pregnant worker if the employer makes similar accommodations for other disabilities or medical conditions.
