Hi All,
Am just over five weeks pregnant and although I don't want to tell my employer yet I'm wondering when the best time to is?
I work in a very male environment (steel industry) and am the only woman working with over 100 blokes. My boss is very much a mans man and I'm really nervous about telling him.
As I'm the Buyer, I also end up lugging around boxes of paper, protective clothing, microwaves etc. I know I can't refuse to lift anything heavier than a paperclip but worried about constant lifting of really heavy things (ps I'm 5ft and have the upper body strength of a 3 yr old...!)
Would love some advice......
