We have heard that a Manager within our small Company has made some discriminatory comments to a pregnant employee – along the lines that she was pregnant, useless and a waste of space.
These comments resulted in the pregnant employee leaving the room in tears.
We have spoken to the pregnant employee and she is refusing to comment on the matter and we are now going to speak to the possbile witnesses (this incident occurred after a team training session had been taken).
Where do we stand if the pregnant employee does not want to take matters further, but we feel that action does need to be taken against the Manager?
