FAQ
Pregnancy and maternity discrimination includes direct discrimination and victimisation. Discrimination can happen in any area of work. It can result from decisions made at work or from how people behave towards each other. It could be a regular pattern of behaviour or a one-off incident.
If there are genuine issues with a pregnant employee's performance, employers can place them on a Performance Improvement Plan. Employers should make sure that any performance concerns are not related to the employee's pregnancy – for example, morning sickness.
Unequal treatment of a person based on circumstances related to their birth is prohibited. Anti-discrimination legislation does not define the criterion further. Case law refers in particular to unfavourable treatment linked to the identity or status of the person's parent(s) or siblings.
Direct discrimination. Direct pregnancy and maternity discrimination is when someone is put at a disadvantage or treated unfavourably because: they're pregnant. they're on maternity leave or have the right to take maternity leave.
Signs You Should Stop Working When Pregnant Abdominal pain, cramping or pressure. Watery, bloody or other vaginal discharge. Increased discharge of any kind. Back pain. Regular or frequent contractions, whether they're painful or not. Water breaking.
Unwanted touching, commonly of a pregnant woman's stomach. Resentful comments about a woman's pregnancy. Negative comments about the impact of a woman's impending maternity leave on the workplace, or the fact that she has been pregnant more than once while working at the same job.
As reviewed in the evidence above, working more than 55.5 hours a week had a 10% increase in the odds of having a preterm birth (Cai et al., 2019). No current recommendation or guideline recommends working more than 40 hours a week in pregnancy, but you could choose to work more than 40 hours a week.
Increased scrutiny of your work, exclusion from meetings or decision-making processes, denial of basic accommodations like additional breaks or modified duties, and negative comments about your pregnancy or future plans to take maternity leave all contribute to a toxic work environment.
