Question 58

Multiple Choice

Which of the following is true regarding Gracie's entitlement to be paid for time she is medically required to be off for pregnancy?


A) Courts have ruled that while an employer cannot fire a pregnant employee based on the pregnancy, employers do not have to pay the employee for time off because pregnancy is a voluntary condition; and Gracie is, therefore, not entitled to paid time off.
B) All employers covered by Title VII must pay employees for the time they are medically required to be off work for pregnancy; and Gracie is, therefore, entitled to at least some paid time off.
C) All employers covered by Title VII must pay employees half their pay for the time they are medically required to be off work for pregnancy; and Gracie is, therefore, entitled to at least some paid time off.
D) Employers under Title VII must treat temporary disability caused by pregnancy the same as any other temporary disability; and since Groucho paid employees who were off based upon other temporary disabilities, he should be required to pay Gracie as well.
E) Courts have ruled that employers only have to pay employees for time they are medically required to be off for pregnancy if the employee handbook provides for such payments; and Gracie is, therefore, not entitled to paid time off.
