We are thrilled to announce that our newly created Pregnancy + My Job: A Roadmap and Guide are now available online and to order!
Welcoming a new child into your home is already stressful enough; figuring out your rights to take time off work and get paid during that time shouldn’t be. These easy-to-navigate materials describe what your workplace rights are in California during and after pregnancy. They also teach you when and how to use those rights. They are specially designed to be usable by everyone.
We encourage health care professionals, social service providers, employers, and employees to share these tools to educate their patients, clients, employees, co-workers, family, and friends.
