Explain the possible legal theory by which an employer could potentially be held liable for discrimination in the following scenario: A woman is working for an employer that has a total of twenty-five employees. Being such a small employer, it does not provide any employee benefits such as sick or disability leave. The woman is pregnant. She tells her manager months in advance of her due date so that she can arrange to take time off. To her surprise, she is fired the following week. As it turns out, the company has a policy that prohibits the hiring or retention of pregnant women. The woman goes to a lawyer and asks what she can do. Of course, the lawyer tells her that she has limited options. Since the employer does not have at least fifty employees, the employer is not covered by the Family Medical Leave Act. Furthermore, since the employer does not offer sick or disability leave to other employees, then the employer is not covered by the Pregnancy Discrimination Act.
