Pregnancy Discrimination is discrimination based on gender and disability. It
occurs when an employer negatively alters the terms, conditions, privileges and/
or benefits of a woman's employment because of her pregnancy.
Pregnancy Discrimination is illegal under United States, New York State and
New York City laws. An employer cannot treat a woman differently because she
is pregnant, may become pregnant or because of her pregnancy related leave of
absence.
