Jenkins v. Humana (Sex and Pregnancy Discrimination)
Kate Jenkins, a former senior executive at Humana, alleged the company discriminated against her on the basis of sex and pregnancy, in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Family Medical Leave Act, and New Jersey law. She alleged that, subsequent to announcing her pregnancy, Humana interfered with her ability to perform her job duties and unjustly criticized her job performance. Jenkins ultimately won $500,000 in damages plus an undisclosed amount in attorneys’ fees.
