A discount vision retailer with stores throughout New Jersey discriminated against a now-former employee by switching her to part time and not providing a suitable place to pump breast milk after she had a baby, a state civil rights complaint alleges.
Jalaia Hill says in a state civil rights complaint that her health coverage was eliminated by the sudden position switch from full to part time when she returned from maternity leave to the America’s Best Contacts & Eyeglasses store in Burlington.
America’s Best also “failed to reasonably accommodate her request for a place to express breast milk,” state Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal said Hill alleges in the complaint filed with the state Division on Civil Rights.
