Is Julia entitled to be paid for time she is medically required to be off work because of her pregnancy?
A) No,courts have ruled that employers only have to pay employees for time they are medically required to be off work for pregnancy if the employee handbook provides for such payments;Julia is,therefore,not entitled to paid time off.
B) Yes,employers under Title VII must treat temporary disability caused by pregnancy the same as any other temporary disability;since Billy paid employees who were off work based upon other temporary disabilities,he should be required to pay Julia as well.
C) All employers covered by Title VII must pay employees for the time they are off work for pregnancy and for twelve weeks after delivery;It does not matter whether Julia's time off is medically required.
D) Yes,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;Julia is,therefore,entitled to at least some paid time off.
E) No,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;Julia is,therefore,not entitled to paid time off.
