about a month ago i informed management that i was pregnant. this past monday i went to my doctor and he put me on restrictions, essentially no heavy lifting. i returned to work on tuesday my regular sched day in brown and was told give us a day to figure it out. so i worked in the office for the day no problem. I returned to work wed and was given a number for ********* hr. she told me i need to file for ada which is the american disabilities act. wtf im not disabled i am pregnant. so hr employee service center sent me the paperwork. i went in yesterday and was asked what sort of light work can i do. i stated i could deliver air for most of my pregnancy with weight limitations. today is friday havent worked again. i am aware that in my building there is someone with less time than me on light duty with an ankle injury obtaining their 8 hrs a day. how is this right. even if i fill out this disabiloity paperwork it would not be processed for quite some time. why should i be penalized for being pregnant. I have been a driver for seven years a loader for two. every person is giving me the run around. i think my next stop is going to be going to atlanta in person causing a stinct. I have been informed that another employee in our local was also having similar issues and was given light duty. any suggestions i have included my email address so if you wish to ctc you can do so at [email protected]
