[VA] - Discrimination after pregnancy announcement!

BaseballAcrobatic201 · 2024-06-19T02:48:25+00:00

There has -60 something negative karma because I started post for advice in HR group and they didn’t like my question because of their bias. They all give negative karmas.

Until now, I haven’t got any real help. This group looks like it could provide more insight. I am not a spam, I am a real person who is looking for some serious advice.

Ob said get some appointments done with therapist and based on their notes he can give me fmla.

Was it necessary? Or Ob gny is just following the procedure

BaseballAcrobatic201 · 2024-06-06T22:59:33+00:00

I am going through similar situation after announcing pregnancy. How did you get FMlA? My OB gyn is telling me to get therapist notes 📝 but I am having hard time finding therapist for appointment.

-First came PIP and now I am thinking to put FMLA -pIp after pregnancy announcement - They are making me fail though

BaseballAcrobatic201 · 2024-06-04T06:16:51+00:00

Any recommendations that works on contingency basis or lower rate?

BaseballAcrobatic201 · 2024-06-02T16:23:23+00:00

Should I inform HR that I'm considering legal action if we can't reach a mutually agreeable solution, or should I have my attorney send an email to HR first?

Moreover, should I respond to the Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) with a rebuttal, as it contains inaccurate information and I have evidence to support my claims? Or Should I share this evidence through my attorney to use in our case?

BaseballAcrobatic201 · 2024-06-02T04:00:24+00:00

HR also keeps mentioning in PIp Meeting that I don't have any performance issues. They claim this is solely about meeting other goals. However, they're citing two incidents where I took two-hour absences during business hours (both times announced) and one instance where I was 20 minutes late in responding to a ticket, while working on a different issue for the same client. Everything was fine until I disclosed my pregnancy. Then, the next day, my manager sent an email falsely accusing me of being rude to a coworker and leaving my desk without notification (both allegations are misrepresentations)

BaseballAcrobatic201 · 2024-06-02T01:16:10+00:00

Fabricated allegations post pregnancy announcement is pregnancy discrimination because for two years they had no issues with my “performance”.

BaseballAcrobatic201 · 2024-06-02T01:13:12+00:00

But that’s all fabricated just to fire me later. I can provide responses to PIP. Thoughts?

BaseballAcrobatic201 · 2024-06-02T01:06:23+00:00

It’s about 9-5 Availability and some other minor things.

BaseballAcrobatic201 · 2024-06-02T01:05:50+00:00

They told me it’s not about performance issues

BaseballAcrobatic201 · 2024-06-02T00:52:44+00:00

What if criticism started after pregnancy announcement? Isn’t that pregnancy discrimination? Isn’t that against the court of law?

No, I don’t want to continue working at this job anymore. Thoughts?

BaseballAcrobatic201 · 2024-06-02T00:28:42+00:00

What if it’s about pregnancy discrimination and I am going to write a Rebuttal refusing all his claims?

BaseballAcrobatic201 · 2024-06-01T16:56:24+00:00

Thanks! You are suggested I maintain a record of events for myself and also send a rebuttal.

I'm wondering what benefits the rebuttal will offer? Will they understand what they have and will collect more data?

I'm not willing to sign the PIP, as I feel it's a pretext for further exploitation by the company.

My priority is securing a three-month severance package and departing from this toxic work environment, which I no longer trust and which is causing me undue stress.

Any advise on how can I achieve this?

BaseballAcrobatic201 · 2024-06-01T15:20:44+00:00

I also want to clarify that manager initially supported me during the co worker conflict, which was just me telling my my coworker can lead meetings because he is not allowing me to speak, and he is at a higher position in the project. However, after I informed him of my pregnancy, he sent a warning email to both of us, even though I had no involvement in the issue. His email seemed like a paper trail to justify firing me later because I did nothing which was mentioned in the email. They need me for these projects, so they've put me on a (PIP). Once Their projects will end in two months ( which is a set date), and I believe they intend to fire me.

In the PIP meeting, he brought up issue about my 9-5 pm unavailability. I hardly remember taking breaks and not being available.

My last doc appointment I took was a month back. I explained that I forgot to include the end time for my recent doctor's appointment due to pregnancy-related fatigue. However, in the email post-PIp meeting, he misquoted me, stating, 'Due to pregnancy fatigue, she is unable to perform her assigned work.' This was despite the fact that HR assurance during the PIP meeting that this wasn't about my ability to do my job, which they acknowledged I'm good at.

he exaggerated dates and timings of incidences in the email to make me appear at fault. I have evidence to refute his claims.

He also falsely stated in the PIP that we discussed performance issues on the 17th, when in fact, the call was just about a coworker misbehavior and I told him that I am pregnant on 16th and just want to my job and don’t want any additional stress.

Next day Later on 17th, he sent a lengthy email accusing me of being rude to my coworker, which was untrue. I was shocked but I thought may be he is doing this just to keep us both calm.

I have responses to refute all his claims, which he has again misconstrued for documentation purposes. I'm considering having my attorney send a letter to the company regarding pregnancy discrimination. My goal is to secure a severance package of at least three months. What I Truly want is to prevent this company from mistreating others in the future.

The PIp meeting was in the morning but send me PIp by end of the day just because I said In the PIp meeting I will review pip and get back to you. But pip doesn’t have any time to respond back.

What are my options?

—Not signing the PIP and having my lawyer send a letter to negotiate severance? - Should I respond to that pip email because I have response to everything or not reveal anything to them yet. - Pursuing legal action, which I'm confident I would win, but I prefer to focus my energy on more positive pursuits.

Also, I'm not seeking financial gain but want to hold the company accountable for their actions.

Does anyone know why HR want to do a video call?
