You have 300 days to file a pregnancy discrimination complaint with the EEOC in Florida. My colleague is correct on the 180 days that is applied in many other jurisdictions. However, since Florida has a local agency in the FCHR (Florida Commission on Human Relations), the time limit is extended in Florida to 300 days. I suggest you contact a local employment attorney to further discuss your matter and options. Based on the limited information you provided, it appears that you may have a viable claim.
If you would like, I can offer a free consultation.
Sincerely Yours,
