| Hiya Harry...
|
| Being fired secondary to a pregnancy is Wrongful Termination, and is
in
| violation of the US Labor Laws.
|
| However, if she was an "At Will" employee and not a contracted
employee, it
| may be difficult to proved discharge as a result of pregnancy. "At
Will"
| employess can be terminated for ANY reason, and the employer never has
to
| give a rason for the termination. I know, that's a bunch of crap, but
85%
| of the US works under "at will" conditions. Also know that the
employee
| herself can terminate her at will employment at any time as well with
no
| reason. It works both ways.
|
| If the employer specifically said "You are fired because you are
pregnant, "
| then she has a substantial case.
