Office life can be tough, but what happens when an employee’s personal life starts affecting their work performance? One boss found himself in the hot seat after confronting a pregnant employee about her productivity. With the rest of the team working overtime, Cara’s pregnancy symptoms were causing her to fall behind. The boss offered some accommodations, but when Cara’s performance didn’t improve, he told her that pregnancy was no excuse. Did he cross the line? Let’s dive into the story.
