I have recently received knowledge of my pregnancy. I currently work in Radiation Protection and being pregnant prevents me from completing the tasks that are required for my position. The company I am with do not have any other pesotions in which it would be safe for me to work so I feel they are going to ‘dismiss’ me. I need to know my rights before they do this. I can not not work with a baby on the way preventing me from qualifying for maternity leave.

Given the uniqueness of your position, it is best for you to contact the number below to speak with one of our employment lawyers so we can discuss the matter in detail with you. An employer has a legal obligation to accommodate you to the point of 'undue hardship'. However, if there are no other position within the company that you could safely work your severance entitlements might be triggered here.
