Barclay Damon Live: Labor & Employment Podcast—"Breaking Down the New PWFA Regulations"

In episode 66 of Barclay Damon Live: Labor & Employment Podcast, host Ari Kwiatkowski offers a solo overview titled “Breaking Down the New PWFA Regulations,” regarding the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act. Ari notes that the PWFA requires employers to provide accommodations to workers’ “known limitations related to pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions absent undue hardship.” The new regs extend those accommodations to applicants as well, specifying that it’s the worker or applicant’s responsibility to communicate any limitations. The new regulations include examples of “related medical conditions,” which are helpful to understand what employers must consider. Listen in for more.
