Pregnancy Accommodation Guidelines

Pregnancy Accommodation Guidelines require employers to provide reasonable adjustments to support pregnant employees' health and safety at work. This can include modifying tasks, adjusting work hours or schedules, offering additional breaks, or providing ergonomic supports. The goal is to enable pregnant workers to perform their duties comfortably and safely without facing discrimination or undue hardship. Employers must assess individual needs and collaborate with employees to implement appropriate accommodations, ensuring a respectful and inclusive workplace that promotes maternal wellbeing and compliance with relevant laws.
