Pregnancy Discrimination Act,
October 31, 1978


The passage of the Pregnancy Discrimination Act in 1978 was the first federal attempt to expand rights and protection for pregnant workers.  The Pregnancy Discrimination Act (PDA) is an amendment to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and prohibits discrimination in employment based on pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions.


Discrimination
Women's Employment During Pregnancy and Following Birth

During the last three decades, the "working mother" has become the norm rather than a rarity.  In 1960, fewer than one in five mothers with children under age six (18.6 percent) were in the labor force.  By 1987, this      percentage had tripled, reaching 57 percent (U.S. Bureau of Census, 1987, table 624).

Facts About Pregnancy Discrimination

The Pregnancy discrimination Act is an amendment to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.  Discrimination on the basis of pregnancy, childbirth or treated medical conditions constitutes unlawful sex discrimination under      Title VII.  Women affected by pregnancy or related conditions must be treated in the same manner as other applicants or employees with similar abilities or limitations.

Pregnancy Discrimination:
Yes, It Is Sex Discrimination!


In the last two years, the Attorney General's office has received several complaints of pregnancy discrimination, mostly against small employers.  In the typical case, the claimant reported that she was working for the      employer for a short time, and that when she informed the employer that she was pregnant, she was fired.  Usually the employer expressed concerns for the claimant's or her unborn child's health and safety, or said that they didn't want to be "held liable" if the pregnant employee was injured while working.
