[Delimitation of work disability and prohibition of employment during pregnancy].
Current discussions on differences of opinion in respect of interpretation of the Federal German Maternity Protection legislation revealed certain difficulties in distinguishing between inability to work and regulations that prohibit a pregnant woman to work or to request her to perform work. Employment of pregnant women in hospitals, for example, is already governed by regulations, but there is a great deal of uncertainty in some other areas of employment. The author describes criteria that can be used in expert judgment whenever there are legal doubts, with particular reference also high-risk pregnancies.
