Guam employers must cooperate with pregnancy investigations
Effective upon enactment, the law clarifies Guam’s pregnancy workplace protections and investigation rules. Employers cannot discriminate against workers whose job abilities are limited by pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions. Investigations can begin from complaints, findings in another case, or formal inspections. Employers must provide requested information within 15 calendar days; a written, approved extension can add no more than 30 calendar days. Division staff and managers may conduct authorized inspections and investigations, including reasonable jobsite interviews and employer record checks. Blocking access is a violation and may bring civil penalties. Investigators may coordinate with local or federal agencies. Findings must use documents, statements, and other relevant evidence, including site visits and outside sources. A report to the Director must summarize the situation and include a recommended action for the Fair Employment Practice Officer.
Guam pregnancy complaints have deadlines and requirements
Under Guam’s pregnancy workplace rules, workers must file complaints within 90 days after a denial. The Fair Employment Practice Office may accept medically delayed complaints for a valid medical reason, but never after 180 days. Complaints and statements must use approved forms, and complaints must include valid photo identification. The Division must create a standard form for requesting reasonable accommodation and provide accommodations as needed. The Office may reject complaints for lateness, missing documents, or a prior U.S. Department of Labor filing. It may help workers obtain employer information and check for federal filings; Guam’s investigation stops while a federal complaint is filed.
