What is Pregnancy job security (estabilidade da gestante)?

Pregnancy job security guarantees employment from confirmation of pregnancy until 5 months after birth (ADCT, art. 10, II, “b”). The employer’s lack of knowledge of the pregnancy does not remove the right (Súmula 244 of the TST) — liability is strict.

Dismissed within the period, the employee is entitled to reinstatement or to indemnity for the protected period.

How LABORIS AI uses it

LABORIS AI flags dismissals within job-security windows and estimates the exposure (reinstatement vs. indemnity) by the court’s grant pattern.
