Helping women avoid pregnancy discrimination
The Fair Work Ombudsman has launched a national campaign aimed at helping women avoid pregnancy discrimination at work.
.........
Pregnancy discrimination can include a range of employer behaviours, such as:
failing to let an employee take parental leave,
declining to keep a job open,
demotion during pregnancy or on return from parental leave, or
refusing to promote an employee because they are pregnant.
An example of one of the complaints voluntarily resolved by an employer following the intervention of the Fair Work Ombudsman is that of a Melbourne professional woman who lodged a complaint after she returned from maternity leave to find that her title and client-base had been changed, affecting her ability to secure her bonus.
After Fair Work inspectors intervened, the company directly addressed the employee’s concerns and implemented new processes for all employees returning from maternity leave.
Mr Johns says the company’s action restored its positive relationship with the employee and negated the need for further action.
The Fair Work Ombudsman also announced today that it had launched its first pregnancy discrimination case in the Federal Court in Sydney.
Facing court is Wongtas Pty Ltd, operator of a commercial printing business in Riverwood, NSW, and its two directors Ding Guo Wang and Xiao Yu Zhang.
“Our objective is to work towards eliminating systemic workplace discrimination, particularly the more insidious forms that impact on vulnerable employees,” Mr Johns says.
The Fair Work Ombudsman has information about maternity discrimination available at its website at www.fairwork.gov.au.
Employers or employees seeking assistance can also contact the Fair Work Infoline on 13 13 94 from 8am to 6pm weekdays. Translations are available by calling 13 14 50. |
