The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act: FAQs for Employers

This webinar will provide practical guidance for employers with questions about the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s (EEOC) final regulations on the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA). The speakers will answer questions raised by the audience in our April 23 webinar as well as discuss current legal challenges and penalties. Topics will include:

• documentation related to PWFA-related requests;
• lactation compliance (e.g., location of nursing areas and break times);
• application of the PWFA to employees who work from home and remote work requests;
• the PWFA’s interaction with seniority systems and application to unionized environments; and
• medical conditions potentially covered by the PWFA (e.g., menstruation and menopause).
