[Audio interview] SCOTUS pregnancy protection

إظهار جميع الإشارات

[Interview with Dahlia Lithwick, Senior Editor and Legal Correspondent for Slate.com, discussing the U.S. Supreme Court case between Peggy Young, a UPS driver who was put on 7 months unpaid leave following a doctor’s recommendation not to lift more than 20 pounds, and UPS. Under the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, employers should provide the same accommodations for pregnant employees as for non-pregnant employees who are ‘similar in their ability or inability to work’. Young argued that the relevant comparator was workers who had been injured at work and were then put on light lifting duties until they recovered. UPS argued that the light lifting workers were not like workers to Young as she had not been injured on the job. The justices could not agree on what the appropriate comparator class was in this case.]
