Week 17; Discrimination Against Pregnant Women

In our world today, there is every type of discrimination. Buisness are discriminating against pregnant women because they will only be working for a short time. Also, these women cannot do hard work for safety reasons. Companies will usually pay the women less. Buisness usually do not hire women who are pregnant because of the amount of time off that they need for doctors visits and maturnity leave. Companies cannot ask a women if she is expecting or planning on expecting.

In my opinion, I feel it is unfair for the women, but also for the buisness. A buisness can not depend on someone who always needs time off. It will eventually hurt the buisness becuase of the constant days off. In my opinion i feel both sides are unfair. If a company really feels they like the expecting mother, they will keep her through maturnity leave.
