Can I request written confirmation of an employee's pregnancy?

Yes. You can ask your employee to provide a certificate from her doctor or midwife. If after a reasonable period of time they haven’t provided the requested certificate, you are not bound to maintain any changes or arrangements you have made in view of her pregnancy. You must however, allow a reasonable period of time for all necessary medical examinations and tests to be completed.
