Reviewed by Prue Alderton (PA), Editor-in-Chief — Pregnancy Discrimination Practice. Updated May 2026.

All content on pregnancydiscriminationcalc.com is written, reviewed, and updated by The Click Lab's editorial team before publication. This page describes our editorial standards, our personnel, and how to request a correction.

Our Editorial Standards

• Every factual claim is sourced to a primary authority: a federal statute, DOL or EEOC regulation, or published court decision. We cite the specific provision, not general summaries.
• Calculator formulas are fully documented on the methodology page, including every assumption, limitation, and formula variable.
• Pages are reviewed and updated when statutes change, when the DOL or EEOC issues new regulations, or when significant court decisions alter the legal landscape.
• No content is sponsored, paid placement, or influenced by advertisers. Our only revenue is Google AdSense display advertising, which has no editorial relationship to our content.
• We do not exaggerate potential recoveries or create false impressions about the likelihood of success in litigation. Estimates are presented as ranges with explicit uncertainty.

Corrections Policy

We take accuracy seriously. If you find a factual error — an incorrect statute citation, an outdated cap amount, a misstatement of legal standards — please contact us at hey@theclicklab.agency with a description of the error and, where possible, a citation to the correct authority. We review all correction requests and update content promptly when an error is confirmed.

We distinguish between factual errors (wrong statute number, outdated threshold, incorrect court holding) and legal uncertainty (areas where courts are split, standards that vary by circuit, or evolving regulatory guidance). The latter is not an "error" — it is the nature of a complex, actively litigated area of law. Where legal standards are unsettled, we say so explicitly rather than presenting one answer as definitive.

Contributing Writer

Daria Pierce (DP) — Contributing Writer, EEOC Procedures & State Law Reference
Daria contributes research and drafting for guides covering EEOC procedure, state-law pregnancy discrimination frameworks, and the interaction between Title VII, the PWFA, the FMLA, and state fair employment acts. Her background includes HR compliance work and research into multi-jurisdiction employment law. She focuses on procedural accuracy: filing deadlines, exhaustion requirements, agency processes, and state-specific rules that affect what employees can recover beyond the federal Title VII baseline.

Scope of Content

Our content covers federal law (Title VII / PDA, PWFA, PUMP Act, FMLA) and general principles of state pregnancy and sex discrimination law. We do not provide jurisdiction-specific legal advice. Readers who need guidance about the laws of a particular state or the specific facts of their situation should consult a licensed employment attorney. Many employment attorneys offer free consultations for discrimination claims and work on contingency.
