Legal Question in Business Law in Massachusetts

termination when pregnant

If your boss knows you are pregnant

and knows your recent ''sick days''

are due to complications of said

pregnancy, can your boss fire you for

taking those sick days (which you are

due as part of your employment

agreement anyway)? Is there a SOL

on this?

Re: termination when pregnant

Discharge for taking sick days during pregnancy is illegal, especially if provided for under your employment agreement. More information is required to make sure you have met all the requirements.

I would suggest you contact an attorney ASAP to discuss your case. You can call me if you have more questions or would like to set-up an appointment to discuss your situation.
