I wouldn’t say it’s discrimination but it depends on workload there too. But 2 weeks is defo not enough time to recover and go back to work. They recommend 6 for recover from c section but also at least 10 after a baby regardless. You’re body needs to recover hun x
I totally understand that but I'd be sat at home working from my desk. I have financial responsibilities too. Maybe not discrmation but I do feel penalised
Oh I get it totally. I had a position come up in my workplace and was told I can’t apply because I was going off. That was 4 months ago so I could have started the job and taken the 6 months I’m taking off easily. But unfortunately as it’s a fixed term for you then they can easily say that the work isn’t needed now xx
Tbh I think it's a contract and not fixed term. The other thing is that the contract expires end of June so I will be able to complete the last 1.5 weeks of the contract. Is it right for them to say that I can't?
It wouldn't be pregnancy discrimination if they don't extend because the job is a fixed term so they have the right to end it when it ends. UNLESS they have told you they are going to - get it in writing, and ensure they don't then offer the job to someone else in some form of new contract/position.
