Pregnancy and temping (contract work)

[Teeki]

As marcellus said, you can't be fired for being pregnant, and the temping agency can't discriminate against you for this reason either.

I'd probably not tell your current employers until you are comfortable. It's not as though you deliberately took a permanent role knowing that you'd be leaving soon, and it shouldn't make a difference anyway. Even if something did happen and the permanent position didn't work out for whatever reason, it's like marcellus sais - as a temp you won't be in a role for a great length of time so the fact that you're pregnant should have no bearing on it, as long as you can do the work!

Congrats on your pregnancy, and good luck with work

ETA: Whoops! Posted at the same time as you Don't worry about letting them down hun, you need to do what's right for you, and if 12 hour days are no good for you then you should have no worries saying you can't work that long. Good luck chatting with the recruitment consultant!
