    This is what I don't like. It's almost like, if they are pregnant, you should almost just GIVE them the job. That way there will not be a discrimination law suit.

    Here's a question, though. What if the final three candidates are pregnant, black, and jewish. Or what if you have one white guy, and one pregnant, black, jewish lady?

    As a practical matter, this isn't completely accurate. You hire someone presumably because you have a job that needs to be done. Hiring someone pregnant means you are temporarily going to have that same gap in your organization in short order.

    For what it's worth, so far I'm the only one that said I won't hire her.

    No. Just have well-documented reasons for not hiring them. If they're not the best qualified job candidate, make sure you have point-by-point reasons why.

    To answer the question, I would NOT hire a pregnant woman.

    Practicality and the law/EEO don't seem to match. Any reason for making job related decisions...ie..hiring, firing, promotion.. based on anything other than qualifications and work performance is discrimination in the eyes of the law. Fair or not..

    Exactly my thought. Why would someone hire a pregnant woman when there are plenty of available candidates who aren't going to be on maternity leave in the near future? It would not be hard to pick someone else from the pile of applicants and find valid reasons for why they are better. If you're really trying to find a new job, why give them a reason up front to pick someone else?
