Add Comment Question: My employer has a 6 month probation period. For the last 6 months everything seemed to be going well. My 6 months is up on Monday. I told them that I was pregnant and planned on taking leave in Feburary. This morning they terminated me and said that they didn't have to give a reason. What are my rights? Do I have any? Answer: If you have been terminated then you are entitled to a severance package based on your age, position, and length of employment, and the probationary clause does not change this. Additionally, it sounds like they may have discriminated against you on the basis of pregnancy. Please contact us at the number below for a consultation with a lawyer to discuss your situation.
