NRS 613.4368
Legislative findings and declaration.


1.

The Legislature hereby finds and declares that:

(a)

Workplace laws must adequately protect pregnant women from being terminated from their employment because of the refusal of their employer to provide a reasonable accommodation;

(b)

Women are often the primary income earners for their families and unemployment resulting from the failure of their employers to provide accommodations in the workplace is an outcome that families cannot afford to endure; and

(c)

By remaining employed, pregnant women continue to provide economic security for their families, which in turn provides an economic benefit to the economy of this State.

2.

The Legislature further finds and declares that it is the intent of the Legislature to fight against discrimination based on pregnancy, childbirth or a related medical condition, promote public health and ensure that women realize full and equal participation in the workforce by requiring employers to provide reasonable accommodations to employees who are pregnant, have given birth or have a related medical condition.
