Pregnancy Accommodation Laws
Pregnancy accommodation laws are regulations that require employers to provide reasonable adjustments for pregnant employees and those who have recently given birth. These accommodations could include modifications to work duties, flexible hours, or additional breaks to support health and well-being. The goal is to ensure that pregnant employees can perform their jobs without unnecessary hardship. These laws vary by region, but fundamentally, they aim to protect the rights of pregnant workers, promoting a fair and supportive workplace environment during and after pregnancy.
