• Refusal to provide reasonable modification to job duties or equipment to accommodate a pregnancy-related disability (work restrictions).
• Refusal to provide time off under Pregnancy Disability Leave (PDL).
• Termination of a pregnant woman’s employment.
• Negative employment decisions because of an employee’s pregnancy.
