Supreme Court weighs pregnant worker protections in PDA case
The justices consider how far federal law protects pregnant employees seeking duty modifications after UPS refused to reassign Peggy Young of Virginia. The case tests the Pregnancy Discrimination Act's reach, with questions on whether it bars targeted pregnancy discrimination and allows state-level additions.
