General Electric Co. v. Gilbert, 429 U.S. 125 (1976), is a 1976 United States Supreme Court case authored by Chief Justice William Rehnquist concerning gender-based discrimination under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

In a 6–3 decision, the Court held that pregnancy could reasonably be excluded from an employer's the disability benefits plan.

The Court's majority opinion applied its conclusion in Geduldig v. Aiello (1974),[1] which held that exclusion of pregnancy from a disability plan did not violate the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution.

[2] The decision in Gilbert generated considerable backlash and prompted Congress to abrogate it by passing the Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1978.
