I need a case involving similarly situated coworkers where one claims the pregnancy discrimination act
To provide you with information about a case involving similarly situated coworkers and the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, could you please specify the type of discrimination the coworker is facing? For example, is it related to hiring, promotion, pay, or another aspect?
Now involve similar job titles
It sounds like you're dealing with a situation where an employee believes they are facing pregnancy discrimination in comparison to coworkers with similar job titles. In Florida, the Pregnancy Discrimination Act (PDA) prohibits discrimination based on pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions.
Here’s what you should know:
- The PDA applies to employers with * or more employees.
- Discrimination could relate to hiring, pay, promotions, job assignments, layoffs, training, fringe benefits, and any other term or condition of employment.
- The coworker must be able to show that they were treated differently than other employees in similar positions who were not pregnant.
Is the discrimination related to promotions, pay, or any specific action taken by the employer? This can help provide more tailored guidance.

i need a case where similar job titles is used as evidence
Here's a relevant case to consider:
Case: Young v. United Parcel Service, Inc.
Summary:
- Peggy Young, a part-time driver for UPS, became pregnant and requested a temporary light-duty assignment due to her pregnancy-related lifting restrictions.
- UPS denied her request, although it provided light-duty work to other employees who were injured on the job, had disabilities covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), or had lost their Department of Transportation certifications.
- Young claimed this denial was discriminatory under the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, arguing she was treated less favorably than other employees with similar job titles who were accommodated for other reasons.
Outcome:
- The Supreme Court ruled in favor of Young, stating that she could show that UPS's policies imposed a significant burden on pregnant workers and that UPS's reasons for limiting accommodations to certain groups of workers were not sufficiently strong to justify the burden.
This case illustrates how similarly situated coworkers (those in similar job titles) who received accommodations can be used as evidence in a Pregnancy Discrimination Act claim.
