Webinar Agenda:
1. New EEOC Rules and Guidance – Pregnancy Worker Fairness Act
On June 18, 2024, the EEOC’s final rules and interpretive guidance on the Pregnant Worker Fairness Act (PWFA) went into effect, reflecting a broad interpretation of the law. This session will cover:

• Whether partners, spouses, or family members have legal rights under the PWFA
• Whether PWFA applies to post-pregnancy parental bonding or childcare requests
• What conditions actually fall under the PWFA? (Hint – EEOC rules reach far beyond pregnancy – e.g., infertility, menstruation, abortion)
• Whether an employer must temporarily eliminate essential job functions
• What supporting medical documentation can be required, if any
• What “undue hardship” is under the PWFA as opposed to the ADA
