[quote=Anonymous]It's a small firm, if you have an idiot HR/manager type there's fewer people around to go, "WTF are you thinking, dumbass??" 19:50 is right, it's only illegal to lay you off if it was BECAUSE of your pregnancy. IANAL, but have some experience with workplace grievances. Any lawsuit is going to compare how other folks "on the bench" were treated -- were they given a few weeks to sit on the bench while corporate looked for more work? Or were they told, "Hey, your project ends on August 10, you're laid off as of August 11?" Talk informally to a lawyer if they aren't going to give you a decent severance package. [/quote]
