The Florida Supreme Court reversed a Third District Court of Appeal decision on Thursday, now making it illegal in Florida to discriminate against an employee on the basis of pregnancy.
The Florida Supreme Court found that pregnancy is "a natural condition unique only to one sex," and that discriminating against an individual on the basis of pregnancy is sex discrimination and thereby prohibited by the Florida Civil Rights Act.
