What does this mean? That other employees are going to be expected to give up their own vacation/sick leave to pregnant co-workers? The state is so cheap they aren't willing to give them their own leave? WTAF.

A lot of places have it set up as "compassion leave". Usually it's done by the employee association and they approve it for personal tragedies. If someone's house burns down, for example.
