Can a woman raising a child alone be laid off?

The general rule is that a woman who is raising a child alone may not be dismissed or laid off. This applies to situations where a woman:

• She is raising a child under the age of 14;
• She is raising a child with a disability;
• She has children under 3 years old;
• Is on unpaid leave to care for a child under 6 years of age.

The exception is in cases of complete liquidation of the enterprise, when the employer is obliged to employ such a woman at another workplace.
