I work in aaledominated industry which is sufferring in the recession. Ive recently been redeployed as my post was redundant. I am in a new role (started end of april officially) and have found out I am pregnant with dc2.
This is my second turn through te redundancy process with this company and after the first i was the only team member left, and pregnant. I didnt tell them During the process as it would have jepardised my position (fact not opinion!).
Anyway to the point! I am going to tell work soon (after 12 weeks) and im aware that the news will not be well recieved by HR.
during the redundancy process the HR person actually asked me my intentions towards more children... Was this dicriminatory or just innappropriate?
My other question is ive recently discovered that my company pay new fathers two additional full paid paternity leave days on top of the ordinary paternity leave, they offer absolutely no enhanced benefits to maternity leave, is this discriminatory also?
Thanks for reading this is more of a thought process punctuated with questions...
