About This Course:
Final regulations for the new Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA) were recently released by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and become effective on June 18, 2024.
While the PWFA became effective in June, 2023, employers did not have definitive instructions about how to comply until the final regulations were issued. Now that the EEOC has spoken, you'll want to get an overview of the new regulations, the EEOC's 400 pages of interpretive material, and strategies and Best Practice suggestions for complying with the PWFA and related laws on pregnancy accommodations.
And who better to help you than employment law attorney Ann Kiernan, employment Course Editor for our "Certificate Program In FMLA, ADA, And PWFA Compliance" seminar. Ann consistently receives 5 out of 5 ratings on her trainings, and will use her expertise to help you sort through your new requirements during this two-hour webinar when Ann will cover the following items, plus leave plenty of time for questions!
