to not tell possible future employer Im pregnant?

[fartblossom]

Hi,

Looking for some urgent advice here.

I was working in a well known store on a temporary contract up till christmas. They had over 100 temp staff (large store) and didnt keep anyone on.

Yesterday about 3:30 I got a phonecall from a withheld number so didnt answer it, today I realised they have left a message. It was my employer wanting me to ring them back.

Of course it could be nothing, but they could also be offering me a job. Now Im 9 weeks pregnant so if they are offering me a job would IBU not to tell them? Legally I dont have to tell my employer till 25 weeks (I think), but isnt honesty the best policy? Or if I did tell them would they find some other excuse NOT to employ me (even though I know they cant NOT employ me cos of pregnancy).

Thanks

eniscerateyourmemory good point I hadnt thought of it in that way. If I do decide not to tell (which I am inclined to do) I will just think of that to make me feel better. I feel a bit deceiptfull (sp?) by not telling them which is not something I like to be.

Also Ivestillgotit in regards to taking the job away from someone else. I totally intend to go back to work after mat leave which im thinking will be less than 6 months never mind a year, whos to say that whoever else got the job 'piss off' after 4 months anyway. I intend to be there for a long time as I really enjoyed it when I was there before.

ivestillgotit your name is apt
you are a TIT

I would say nothing.
