For a little more information try << http://en.wikipedia.org/...physis_pubis_dysfunction >>

Not something I would like to experience

A little sympathy and understanding may be the order of the day for a valued member of your team. Pregnancy is only temporary but the results can be life changing for all involved

Gents, coming from a lady who has been pregnant and worked (still working) in construction, the lady in question is not messing, her 'condition' relationg to her hips is no joke I can assure you, its is down right sore. If it is SPD that she has. It affects every woman different owing to the shape/ size of the pelvis and age. I had it toward the end of my pregnancy along with high blood pressure, in the end I remained in the office on light duties and finished up earlier than I had wanted to because I just couldnt walk.

Therefore, you need to answer,
1.How far pregnant is she?
2. She is working for you, a retail outlet, is there scope for her to work from home?
3. What is her current role?
4. How old is the lady in question?
5. You do not have facilities for her (on the same level) - would there be scope for a portable toilet?
6. What does she want?

As far as relocating her, yes you have done your bit.




There are a number of factors and I think Lawlee has listed most...in my experience it is not what you are saying it may be the way it is being put across..so more dependant on the relationship with the line manager or HR..
