Episode 15: How to Fight for your Rights at Work with Daphne Delvaux of @themamattorney

 

Join Rachael and Daphne Delvaux as they talk about women’s rights in the workplace, family leave policies in the US and more. Daphne is an award-winning trial attorney and has even founded her own law firm devoted to women's rights at work. This episode is so powerful and informative for anyone who has a job and is planning on being pregnant, has been pregnant in the past, is back to work and pumping, or is an employed parent. Feeling empowered by knowing all your rights and options can take a lot of the unknown out of the equation and help you to plan for the future!

 

In this episode we discuss the most important things to line up before and after you announce your pregnancy, advice on when to announce pregnancy at work and when you should ask about maternity leave and partner’s leave. Daphne gives an overview of legal protections in place for working moms- such as maternity leave, breastfeeding and pumping accommodations, discrimination prevention, family and medical leave and flexible work arrangements. We also discuss navigating pregnancy-related discrimination, including unfair treatment and wrongful termination, and how to navigate this, plus tips for negotiating family-friendly policies for a better work-life balance and managing the transition back to work after maternity leave ends.
