    Maternity Rights - Introduction

    A pregnant employee does not have to have 1 year's continuous employment to be able to claim Unfair Dismissal.

    Dismissal for a reason "connected" with pregnancy is automatically unfair.

    The Employment Tribunal will interpret "connected" very widely.

    Women are also protected from any unfair treatment at work because of their pregnancy or childbirth, or their wish to take maternity leave.
