If you have been treated unfavourably by your employer because of your pregnancy or pregnancy-related illness, you have been the victim of pregnancy discrimination.
In Ireland the issue of pregnancy discrimination is serious. According to “Pregnancy at Work – A National Survey” “just under one-third of women who had been employees during pregnancy experienced problems around maternity leave.”
The same survey found that 13% of women stated that they physical or mental health during pregnancy ad been adversely affected wither “a great deal” or “quite a bit” by their job. Ormonde Solicitors Employment Matters, the specialist solicitors for employees, presents an online event to inform people on what exactly pregnancy discrimination is and what they can do about it

Jade Wright, Barrister at Law, will guide attendees through the elements of pregnancy discrimination, the rights and responsibilities of the employer and the routes open to the victims.
This webinar is free to attend, but you must register in advance. Attendees will be off-camera and there will be the opportunity to ask questions.
