You should work with your employee to create an independent work arrangement that allows her to keep her job while she is on maternity leave. This could include remote work, job-share, or a reduced workload.

You cannot legally terminate an employee due to their pregnancy and you should not fire her for that reason alone. There may be other valid reasons to terminate her such as inadequate job performance or breach of workplace policy. You may also choose to offer a reduction in working hours for the duration of the pregnancy. Lastly, you should consult with an HR professional to better understand your legal obligations in this situation.
