Can a At-Will employer fire an employee who is 8 months pregnant for "failure to complete an assigned task"?

An at will employer may terminate an employee for any reason or no reason at all. It just cannot be an illegal reason. Under Title VII, an employer cannot discriminate against an employee on the basis of her pregnancy, so I would ask if other employees were similarly punished, do other employees have numerous write-ups, does the employer have a handbook with a progressive punishment scale, and some other questions. You should contact an attorney who represents employees. Feel free to reach me at 614-949-1181. Matthew J.P. Coffman
