Employment ban | Physiotherapy for a slipped disc during pregnancy

Employment ban

Whether an employment prohibition is pronounced with existing volume disk problems during the pregnancy, depends on the individual situation, the exercised job and the possible developing risks for mother and child. In general, a ban on employment should only be issued if the activity to be performed would endanger the welfare of the mother or the unborn child. A prohibition of employment means that the pregnant woman is partially or completely released from her work obligation.

In contrast to a normal sick leave, a prohibition of employment means that the pregnant woman receives her full salary. This is paid proportionally by the employer and the health insurance company.In many cases, a slipped disc during pregnancy leads to an employment ban, at least temporarily. Ultimately, the attending physician decides whether an existing herniated disc is a reason for an employment ban.

Which therapy method is used always depends on the existing problem, the progress of the pregnancy and other factors.
