      Pregnancy discrimination is widespread in corporate America. Some employers deny expecting mothers raises, others fire them before they can take maternity leave. For women who work in physically demanding jobs, discrimination often comes with higher stakeshttps://nyti.ms/2CY1F50

      A New York Times investigation identified dozens of women who said they suffered miscarriages, went into premature labor or, in one case, had a stillborn baby after pregnancy discriminationhttps://nyti.ms/2CY1F50

      If you are a Verizon customer on the East Coast, odds are good that your cellphone arrived by way of the XPO Logistics warehouse in Tennessee. Inside the warehouse, hundreds of workers, many of them women, lift boxes weighing up to 45 pounds, filled with iPhones and other gadgetspic.twitter.com/rgFFfVmE14

      After Ceeadria Walker learned she was pregnant, she said she gave her XPO supervisor a doctor’s note saying she should not lift more than 15 pounds. She said she asked to be assigned to an area with lighter items. https://nyti.ms/2CY1F50 pic.twitter.com/qFN9mjr4Ii

      Ceeadria Walker said her supervisor regularly sent her to a conveyor belt line where she had to lift 45-pound boxes. She miscarried the day after spending her shift handling those heavier boxes. https://nyti.ms/2CY1F50 pic.twitter.com/zmxPQawpb9

          Ceeadria Walker is not alone. 5 other women at the warehouse have also had miscarriages. In 2014, Erica Hayes, a worker who was in the second trimester of her first pregnancy, bled through her jeans at the end of her shift. She had lost her pregnancy. http://nyti.ms/2CY1F50 pic.twitter.com/0u0q6SuwNY

          The only federal law protecting expecting mothers is the Pregnancy Discrimination Act. It says a company only has to accommodate pregnant women’s requests if it is already doing so for other employees who are “similar in their ability or inability to work” http://nyti.ms/2CY1F50 pic.twitter.com/9YtGjJTQ8l

          In every congressional session since 2012, a group of lawmakers has introduced a bill for pregnant workers that would require employers to accommodate those whose health depends on it. The legislation has never had a hearing.http://nyti.ms/2CY1F50

          Very sad, sue the boss and also these politicians whose job is to make public safeguards laws, rather then attacking poor countries

          My heart really goes out to Ms. Walker. Years ago, during my pregnancy with my only child (now in his late 20s) I packaged and shipped printers for a small, wholesale computer outfit. Placenta previa struck. I was lucky to have a supervisor that took on the lifting until term.

          That supervisor should be sued and held accountable for killing that child.
