Description: On April 15, 2024, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) released its final regulations under the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, codified at 29 C.F.R. § 1636. These regulations, which took effect on June 18, 2024, have since faced legal scrutiny across the United States. Join us for this timely and comprehensive class as our expert panel guides you through the requirements for providing reasonable accommodations to employees with “known limitations related to pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions.”
This new class delves into the legal obligations under the new federal regulations, providing a thorough understanding of what constitutes a reasonable accommodation. In addition, our panel discusses the ongoing court challenges to these regulations and how they impact pregnancy accommodation requirements in Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia.
Designed for legal practitioners seeking a foundational understanding of the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, this class will equip you with practical tactics, strategies, and best practices to help your clients successfully navigate and implement these new compliance requirements.
