My employment agreement states that I will be eligible for medical benefits after 90 days of employment. I have been with the company for 9 full months now and still have not been offered the benefits. I am now pregnant. Where do I go from here?
You need to have an Oregon attorney review the employment agreement and the facts surrounding your case. The information you provided is not enough to reach a conclusion.
Just because you are "eligible" does not necessarily mean your company needs to proactively try to offer you the benefits. That said, your company may have an affirmative obligation, in which case they may have breached a contract and be liable for damages.
Good luck,
