Barclay Damon Live: Labor & Employment Podcast—"Highlights From New PWFA Regulations: What You Need to Know"

Longtime host Ari Kwiatkowski is back, fittingly from maternity leave, to discuss the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA) regulations. The PWFA requires employers to provide reasonable accommodations for known limitations related to pregnancy, childbirth, and associated conditions. In this solo episode, Ari provides an overview of the law, its requirements, and what constitute known limitations, qualified employees, and reasonable accommodations. The episode also covers lactation accommodations as well as a current lawsuit against the EEOC.
