Why should you get paid if you don’t work? If a man breaks his leg, why should his employer pay him? He gets unemployment insurance and that is what pregnant women should get rather than more that men that can’t work. ?
That would work if she didn’t she said she didn’t intentionally get pregnant (I don’t know what happened but there I was, pregnant). I mean if a guy breaks his leg I’m sure he didn’t do it intentionally. So in this case maybe UI? Disability?
She's not asking to get paid for not working. She's asking for a temporary reassignment to an area where she can work without fear of harm to her health or the health of her baby.
