(This is true for many situations.... Not just a fear of losing the employee to pregnancy).

Thanks for the replies. I am well aware that an employer will not put that on paper however it's already been said and discussed.
May be different rules for small companies.
When my daughter got pregnant, it being a start up she was with, they did not have to do much of anything you would think they would under the law.
No paid leave, no holding the job....
