هل يمكن أن يُفصل الصاحب عن امرأة قبل أن تُبلغه بأنها حامل؟

In the case when an employee informs the employer about her pregnancy after receiving a termination notice for disciplinary reasons, it is important to examine this issue from the perspective of labor law. In most countries, there are regulations protecting pregnant women from dismissal, but the specific regulations may vary. In Poland, for example, the dismissal of a pregnant woman is prohibited unless certain special circumstances exist, such as not performing work for a longer period of time. Nevertheless, in the case of termination for disciplinary reasons, the employee should have the right to defend herself and present her arguments. In the described case, it is worth consulting with a lawyer to obtain a professional opinion. If the woman has the appropriate medical certificate and sick leave (L4), she should present them in the appropriate manner. The employer can then examine whether there are sufficient and justified reasons for dismissal, regardless of the employee's pregnancy. It is important to act in accordance with labor law regulations and respect the rights of the employee, especially when it comes to the dismissal of a pregnant woman.
