Report Link Ohio Proposes to Expand Protection for Pregnant Employees.
Jackson Lewis LLP - November 07, 2007
Employers with four or more employees in Ohio may be required to grant significantly more leave time to female employees for pregnancy-related conditions beginning in December. The Ohio Civil Rights Commission voted on October 25, 2007, to expand rights provided to female employees who need time off for pregnancy- and maternity-related conditions. The proposed regulations provide female employees in Ohio with leave and benefits that significantly exceed those to which an employee is entitled under the federal Family and Medical Leave Act ("FMLA").
