NJ Woman Sues Over Pregnancy Discrimination |
February 16, 2012
Dr. Mary Beamer, 41, said she was fired because she missed 11 days of work after complications from her pregnancy. After she sued for sex and pregnancy discrimination, her employer counter-sued for $50,000, saying she broke a four-year employment contract.
Worker advocates say Beamer's case represents inconsistency in enforcing pregnancy discrimination laws, which the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has said is a "long overdue" issue.
