In 2015, the Supreme Court issued a decision in Young v. United
Parcel Service. In the case, a United Parcel Service (UPS) worker
named Peggy Young challenged her employers refusal to grant her a
light-duty work assignment while she was pregnant, claiming that
UPSs actions violated the Pregnancy Discrimination Act (PDA). In a
highly anticipated ruling, the Justices fashioned a new test for
determining when an employers refusal to provide accommodations for
a pregnant worker constitutes a violation of the PDA, and the Court
sent the case back to the lower court for reconsideration in light
of these new standards. This book begins with a discussion of the
facts in the Young case, followed by an overview of the PDA. The
book then provides an analysis of the Young case, its implications,
and a potential legislative response. Furthermore, the book focuses
on sex discrimination challenges based on: the equal protection
guarantees of the Fourteenth and Fifth Amendments; the prohibition
against employment discrimination contained in Title VII of the
Civil Rights Act of 1964; and the prohibition against sex
discrimination in education contained in Title IX of the Education
Amendments of 1972.
