Complainant alleges she was terminated from her placement through a staffing agency due to excessive absences because she was pregnant. Complainant further alleges that she received no
complaints regarding her work performance from Respondent before she became pregnant. Shortly after starting her contract, Complainant discovered she was pregnant and put on bed rest for a few days. Respondent requested a doctor’s release to return to work, which Complainant complied with. Respondent informed her that she could not return to work until they could discuss their
liability with the staffing agency, and Complainant was terminated shortly after. Two complaints were filed, one against the company she was placed with and one with the staffing agency who
placed her. Investigation did not find substantial evidence of discrimination with the staffing agency and the case was closed. However, a finding of substantial evidence was made against the
company she was placed at. The Commission is currently conciliating this case.

Complainant alleged, on behalf of Complainant’s non-binary minor child, that Respondent discriminated against Complainant’s minor on the basis of sex when Respondent hired the minor,
but Respondent’s manager refused to refer to the minor by their chosen name and pronouns, and told the minor they were unwelcome, resulting in the minor’s resignation. The parties entered into
a Pre-Determination Settlement Agreement with Respondent compensating Complainant $500 and providing an apology letter. Respondent also agreed to adopting a non-discrimination policy and
training to its all employees. The Commission was informed on May 19, 2023, that only management staff had been trained. The Commission continues to monitor for completion of training of all employees.

Complainant alleged she was discriminated against when she was sent home after two weeks of employment and was told not to come back because she was pregnant and too big to work. Investigation determined there was substantial evidence of discrimination on September 8, 2022. A Conciliation Agreement was approved November 10, 2022, in which Complainant received a
settlement of $400. The Commission continues to monitor the remaining terms of the Agreement.

Complainant alleged sex and pregnancy discrimination when she was subjected to a derogatory statements about parents and pregnant women being less reliable and/or committed to the workplace than employees who were not parents. Her employment was terminated shortly after she informed Respondent she was pregnant.

A settlement agreement was negotiated, and Respondent agreed to conduct anti-discrimination training to its managers and supervisors.
