Health and safety for pregnant employees

"When the employee tells her employer she’s pregnant, the employer should assess the risks to the woman and her baby.

Risks could be caused by:

heavy lifting or carrying

standing or sitting for long periods without adequate breaks

exposure to toxic substances

long working hours

Where there are risks, the employer should take reasonable steps to remove them, eg by offering the employee different work or changing their hours.

The employer should suspend the employee on full pay if they can’t remove any risks, eg by offering suitable alternative work."

They should be giving you more frequent breaks. In my job I'm entitled to an hour & half over a 10 hour day. When I was pregnant I was told to break this into 20 min segments rather than 45 mins. Speak to your employers hun xx

I will do but my manager is off till the 4th x
