I live in Ohio and I work in a distribution center. For the last 2 weeks, I was placed on light duty, which suited my doctor and I fine. On Thursday, I was asked to leave work because my doctors slip that says I cannot lift over 25 pounds because it may cause premature labor was not specific enough. I didn't think it was more specific than that. I was also told that this was a first time for an employee, so they were not sure how to handle it. But after speaking to the lady that use to HR there for the last 10 years, I found out 2 other women had been pregnant and placed on light duty for the duration of their pregnancies. She told me to look up the pregnancy discrimination act, but my PC is so slow, that when I search, it freezes and shuts down. I would love any kind of help because my bills did not stop, in fact, I have to start paying on my delivery now to have it paid off before the big day!
