Wabash National Corporation, a leading manufacturer of semi-trailers and commercial trucking equipment, is facing legal action from the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) for violating federal law. The EEOC's lawsuit alleges that Wabash failed to accommodate a pregnant employee's known limitations related to her pregnancy and subjected her to an unlawful medical inquiry. The lawsuit claims that Wabash denied the employee’s request to transfer to a position that did not require lying on her stomach. Instead, the company compelled her to take unpaid leave and ultimately forced her to return to her original position without any modifications. This refusal to accommodate her needs led to significant concerns about her pregnancy's health, resulting in her resignation when she was nearly eight months pregnant, according to the EEOC. ???????? ???? ????????: https://lnkd.in/gb8AjBvR Source- EEOC Newsroom #eeoc #equalemploymentopportunity #newsroom #update #pregnancydiscrimination #pwfa #pregnantworkersfairnessact #lawsuit #violation #employees #employers #accommodationrequest #unpaidleave #medicaldocumentation #documentation #ada #americanswithedisabilitiesact

It has been my privilege to represent working mothers who, unfortunately, consistently face sex and pregnancy discrimination in the workplace. There are more protections in place under the law than ever before and more zealous advocates willing to help. Today’s society is more aware of the pitfalls of traditional stereotypes that negatively impact working mothers but the fight is not over. While it is not easy, know that you are more than worthy in your role as a mother and as a working mother. Never forget that you have employment rights and, more importantly, never forget your overall worth as a mother… We literally cease to exist without you. As always, do good things and never sell yourself short! HAPPY MOTHERS DAY! Attorney Odu ?? Employment Law & Workers Rights ?? Personal Injury ?? Rhode Island & Massachusetts ?? (401) 209-2029 ??

?? Protecting Your Workplace Rights! ?? Expecting and concerned about your rights at work? California's Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA) ensures fair treatment and respect throughout your pregnancy journey! ???? Enacted in 2012 and expanded in 2015, the PWFA safeguards pregnant employees from discrimination and guarantees reasonable accommodations in the workplace. It's illegal for employers to discriminate based on pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions—covering hiring, firing, promotions, job assignments, and more. Under the PWFA, employers must provide reasonable accommodations upon request, such as modified duties, extra breaks, facility access, or temporary role adjustments. Plus, they're required to inform employees of their rights by posting notices and including information in handbooks. At Setyan Law, APC., we're dedicated to protecting your pregnancy rights. Our expert attorneys offer guidance on navigating the PWFA, advocating for your rights, and seeking remedies if they're violated. Don't let pregnancy hinder fair treatment! Contact Setyan Law, APC. today for tailored legal advice and advocacy. ?? Read More:?setyanlaw.com ?? 213-618-3655 ??
