Maternity leave is a critical time for employees, allowing them to bond with their newborn child while managing recovery. However, some employees face discrimination during or after their maternity leave, which can lead to legal complications.

- Being fired or demoted after taking maternity leave
- Being denied the same opportunities or pay increases given to others

These actions can violate state and federal laws designed to protect employees during and after pregnancy.
