Have you heard about the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act? Congress passed it in 2023, but the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission just published a final regulation in June of this year. 

Deborah Hopkins, attorney and president of the Federal Employment Law Training Group, joined me on the podcast to discuss what you need to know as a pregnant employee and as a supervisor. This law changes the way you should think about reasonable accomodation when it comes to pregnancy. If you want to learn more, head to https://feltg.com/webinar-training/ to learn more about additional training FELTG offers on this and other topics.
