    My employer had 4 employees, and still I got a 4 month maternity leave in the Netherlands. The size of the company shouldn't matter. The US is seriously effed up.

    • @LarisseMontrose
      @LarisseMontrose Год назад +4

      It really shouldn't. In the US though we've seen small businesses as the underdog for decades since companies like walmart drove so many out of business and took the profits out of our communities. For a lot of people (and lawmakers) that's morphed into venerating/pitying small business owners and now they legally get away with things that a larger business can't.
      It's ridiculous.

    Having a child in the US still equals to disability....? In Germany, you are NOT allowed to work 6 weeks prior to the calculated birth date. You also can't be fired between the time of announcing the pregnancy until 4 months after have given birth. These are just two of the many more examples. Why are women not marching on the streets for their rights and especially for the well-being of their children?

      Not even all states provide a short-term disability option either. Meaning anyone who doesn’t get paid maternity leave from their work/is self-employed, doesn’t get paid leave after having a baby. *Me.*
      It’s been so stressful for me knowing I’ll have 0 income for however long I take my leave. It’s also right before tax season for me too which is already extremely rough because I’m self-employed.
      So I’ll have a hospital bill, pediatrician bills, my personal expenses like my rentals, car insurance, phone, health, etc
      AND have to pay almost 10k for taxes right after I get back to work. (That’s even after my estimated payments I’ve been making.) I hate it here. America SUCKS.

      Same in Switzerland. From the beginning of pregnancy till 4 month after there is no firing. 14 weeks of maternity leave are mandatory (!!!). All of this is payed by the public hand. And to be honest, i love paying taxes here, because those things like this woman has to go throught are not normal. It's not sitting on the high horse but come on US, you can do this better. It's not about wellfare state, it's about taking care of you fellow men (and woman).

    He's right. It's illegal to discriminate.
    It's called FMLA and it's a fed law that stipulates 12 weeks of unpaid leave, job protection, & health insurance must be maintained.
    With that being said, the co. must have 50 or more employees.
    Also, the boss doesn't have to file for your disability. She can file it herself with the state & there is noting he can do.
    Allow him to fire you, collect unemployment, & stay home with the newborn til you find a new position.
    Register for financial aid & plus loan, go back to school online so you'll be hm with the baby.
    A health radio technologist pays $65-$85K yr & it's a 2 yr program.
    Apply for loan forgiveness as you qualify as a helping field career.
    Schooling goes both ways...

    I firmly believe that we need to implement a sick leave as well as maternity & paternity leave programs for all workers in this country. I personally feel that every time worker in this country regardless of their job should be guaranteed at least 2 weeks of sick leave & 2 weeks vacation per year. In addition to guaranteed sick leave, we also need to allow both mothers & fathers who just had a baby to be guaranteed time off with pay as well, so that way businesses can ensure that their employees at all levels can come into work feeling their best & contributing their best physically and mentally everyday.
    Finally, I firmly believe that "Working Poor" should not be a thing! If you work full time every week of the year, you shouldn't be living at or below the poverty line in this country! Hence why I feel there should be a Universal Basic Income for every American citizen above the age of 16 based on what the poverty level is so that way no one who works full time should have to financially struggle to get by.

    First: he's not telling her that she "can't" have a baby, he's telling her that these are her options as far as the company policy goes (which don't include denying her having a baby). Just that "you can do x or y, but not z" as far as taking time off. that's it. There are NO Rights being denied.
    Second: this has nothing to do with her desire to have a baby, it's solely based on the logistical functioning of the company there are MANY laws that apply to large companies but not small companies, This is mainly due to the need of the company to be able to continue functioning if the employee is out for a long period of time. If an employee is going to be missing and it impacts the functioning of the company significantly, then they are allowed to either limit how long that employee is gone (with in the limits of the law and company policy) OR they are allowed to replace that employee. Simple as that. JUST LIKE she has the right to decide to not work for that company anymore if her circumstances change and she doesn't feel that working for that company benefits her anymore... Now, some small companies are able to work around an employee being missing for long periods, and that's great. But some companies can't, and that's why they are allowed to opt out of things like maternity leave.
    Third: she is always free to not work for that company at her choosing, she is not a slave of the company and they have no say in her choice to continue working there... If she feels that she would like for another company that has the benefits that she desires, then she should apply to that company... Simple (and I have done this several times in my life).
    Forth: Telling women to sue a company for things that are legal for them to do will only 1. get her fired, 2. cost her legal fees AND possibly punitive fines when the company wins, 3. falsely encourage other people to try and go down this same path and end up in the same situation (losing money they probably don't have) without understanding that what they're trying to do is futile and won't work out for them either.
    Fifth: IF you don't agree with the laws as they are written, then work to have them changed, DON'T encourage people to fight against something that is already legal.
    Sixth: trying to force companies (especially small companies) to take on things (laws or policies) that significantly apply to one sex will actually cause them to hire LESS people of that sex in order to lessen the impact to that company due to those laws or policies. Example, a small company has 35 employees. 6 women quit or take 6 months leave in order to start families. Later, the company will try and hire men instead of women to fill those positions the next time those positions are vacant. Even though it seems 'sexist' for this to happen, in reality it's about logistics. The needs of the company will come first to those that make the decisions about the wellbeing of the company.
    Seventh: DON'T try to compare the U.S. laws to those that are socialists or semi-socialists countries. Their leave is paid for through the government from taxpayers' money. IF they company is paying the employee for that time off, the company is being reimbursed from the government for what they are paying the employee. Thus, the employee is actually paying for their time off with their taxes.

    My late grandma and mother always told me that I have a face that said " Don't even dream of trying me", and clearly I do, because I have never ever had any employer say even a 1\10th of this bs.
    I once worked for a man who had a reputation of screaming sooo violently at his assistants. That they quit under a weeks time, so my 5'3\18 yr old self interview with his wife. She asked what would I do if he yelled at me. I asked if the office was still on the 15th floor? She said it was. I asked if her husband has suddenly grown wings? She said he hadn't. I then asked if the glass in the window was tempted reinforced. She said no it was just regular. I advised that her husband should never yell, scream, threaten, or try to harm me. For I would toss him out the window, and time the fall.

    I wish her the best. She is not the first woman to have gone through this and probably won't be the last. I myself was fired the day before I had my son, because the company I worked for at the time didn't give maternity leave to seasonal employees. And the human resources people said there was nothing they could do, and to go find another job, if my family needed the money so much, and I was wanting to still work. If the businesses out there think they can get away with these insane things to employees, they keep doing it. But it is the employees who suffer.

    The job I had back when I was pregnant with my first child, I had planned to use up a bunch of vacation and sick time where I could take off nearly a month before he was due. Shortly before i was due to go on leave I get informed that a coworker wanted to take a week of vacation time before I go on leave and that I was to cover her duties on top of mine that week - I was working as a housekeeper at an inpatient medical facility. This was challenging work covering my own work while several months pregnant - let alone double the work. Though I did what I could, needless to say, I had several complaints from staff that week that things were not done to their liking. Also, the original idea to have the extra weeks before giving birth to get last minute things ready for the baby didn't go as planned - he ended up arriving nearly three weeks early. I wonder if the additional stress from that last week working contributed to that.

    People educate yourself on labor laws, the amount of employees does matter, this will also depend on the state you work in. You have fmla at federal level for 50 ee ir more and AdA which covers 15 ee or more in Nevada - If the company is an state where there is no specific state laws, the they have to adhere to the federal level and under AdA is a must to rp use reasonable accommodation for the birth of a child, to allow the woman to go out 6 to 8 weeks depending on when the Dr. Releases her from the child birth disability. And even if the state doesn’t have enough employees I always advise clients to allow the woman to be out for the period of the disability. Please note that STd benefits is something different employees get confuse, unless the state mandates companies to provide it there is not requirement to offer supplemental short term disability this is a benefit that will replace income while on leave this is not a protection of your job. Again the laws will depend on the state.

    Steve TV: With regards to the young lady being told by her employer that if she had a baby she would be fired is against the law. It is a form of discrimination. This law or something similar to it is nothing new in NYS. However, if it is in writing that she cannot have a baby, while employed at her place of business and she signed some type of contract or policy relating thereto, she must adhere to it. I would suggest that she look into this matter further, legally, as there is free legal service (consultation) available pertaining to this subject matter.

Plus he'd fear that mothers would have to go home a certain time (to pick up the child etc) and not able to stay longer(all shift work jobs). Never took one of them jobs but kind of happily surprised that others find that weird, too. Saw that soooooo often😅

    Norway: In Norway, a pregnant employee is entitled to a leave of absence for up to 12 weeks during her pregnancy. After childbirth, the mother takes a leave of absence for the first 6 weeks of the post-birth period unless she produces a medical certificate stating that it is preferable that she resume work.
    The parental benefit period lasts 49 weeks (15 weeks are reserved for each parent) with 100% wage coverage or 59 weeks (19 weeks are reserved for each parent) with 80% wage coverage. The parental benefit is calculated in the same way as sickness benefits. The maximum benefit is equivalent to 6 times the National Insurance Basic Amount annually, regardless of whether the parents’ income is higher.
    Leave rights related to having a child mean that parents, together, are entitled to take leave until the child attains 3 years of age. The Norwegian Labour and Welfare Service (NAV) pays the first year. Even though there is no bonus system, Norwegian fathers are known to use up 40% of parental leave so that they can spend time with their children before going back to work.

      Yes, exactly! Such a creep, even having an issue with her marriage. She said she was only 19 when she started working for him. I've no doubt she was the best employee that loser has ever had, and he was gaslighting and controlling to keep it that way. Luckily this young lady knows her worth and as she matured realized the work situation was really off. Very proud of her!

    I can’t believe you don’t get maternity leave.

    This would be considered constructive dismissal. He made her leave. This is also illegal and a legal case in uk!

    By the way, the Mormon church used to… Pretty sure they still do encourage you to quit… Used to fire women who got married, or got pregnant if they worked for the church.
