Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 was implemented
to protect the civil rights of students in the United States.
This title makes it illegal to discrimination against students
who attend federally funded schools based on their sex,
as well as prohibiting sexual harassment, pregnancy discrimination,
and unequal opportunities in education and school activities.
The Equal Pay Act was instated in 1963 as part of the
Fair Labor Standards Act to ensure that men and women who
perform comparable work are paid comparable wages. This
anti-discrimination act prohibits gender discrimination
in regards to employees' wages.
Pregnancy discrimination occurs in workplaces throughout
America. Expectant mothers are allotted up to four months
of disability leave according to California laws. This
leave may be used for pregnancy related illnesses or disabilities,
the birth of the child, childbirth recuperation, and other
medical issues. Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964
states that prospective employers may not discriminate
against a woman because of pregnancy or a pregnancy related
illness or disability.
