EMPLOYER WITH FEWER THAN 15 EMPLOYEES MAY BE LIABLE UNDER TITLE VII
 
 
A woman claimed pregnancy discrimination against a company with fewer than 15 employees as well as a larger company. She claimed that they were joint employers. Although the companies maintained separate bank accounts, management, payroll and tax filings they could be held liable as joint employers because they shared a human resources department.
