A woman has filed a lawsuit against the operators of Grafton Skytour, alleging that her employer reduced her working hours and eventually terminated her employment after she disclosed her pregnancy.
The lawsuit, filed by plaintiff Bailee Hammannin the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Illinois, East St. Louis, claims violations under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act of 2023.
Hammann asserts that she faced pregnancy-based discrimination, harassment, and retaliation for requesting reasonable accommodations due to her pregnancy.
