Pregnancy-related dismissal at work hits ‘epidemic levels’
Richard Grogan was yesterday speaking after one of his clients, Sandra Gegeckiene was awarded €10,000 earlier this week by the Labour Court after being sacked while pregnant by the sandwich chain, Subway.
Ms Gegeckiene’s case followed a ruling at the Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) where a creche owner was ordered to pay €4,902 to a woman she sacked while pregnant.
