How long until I tell work about being pregnant?

Question

I work in a very physical environment and I know I am very early on in my pregnancy. I work at Purolator and I pack freight that goes into planes sometimes lifting 75lb + boxes. When should I let work know I'm pregnant

Answer

You should probably let them know immediately. Since you are very on in your pregnancy you don't want to be lifting anything that could interfere

Answer

I  am on holiday from my work but I plan on going into work before I go back on Monday and let my boss know that I can't work in my section in work, it involves a lot of heaving lifting that I have been struggling to do before I got pregnant.

Answer

I unload and reload trucks for work so I do a lot of heavy lifting. I told one of my managers as soon as I got back my blood test results at 4 weeks. We're pretty much playing it by ear, if I don't feel comfortable and confident in lifting something I leave it and get help but they're letting me decide what I can and can't lift which is working out great
