Mark your calendars for two FREE employment law webinars this month.

I receive email alerts from the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission that include information on upcoming webinars. Most of them cost money to attend. But every once in a while, there’s a freebie.

Like this one.

“Navigating Pregnancy and Nursing for Working Mothers”

Starting today, the EEOC and the U.S. Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division (WHD) will co-host “Navigating Pregnancy and Nursing for Working Mothers” seven times this month. These events aim to provide information on the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, and the PUMP Act. These are the federal laws protecting pregnant workers from discrimination, providing time off for the birth or adoption of a child, and ensuring nursing workers can take breaks to pump breastmilk while at work.

The curriculum will explain the legal protections and facilitate conversations in the workplace to ensure compliance, including information on how to assist new and expecting mothers.

“Everything Employers Need to Know Now About the FTC’s Non-Compete Rule”

The FTC’s Rule banning non-competes takes effect on September 4, 2024. Before then, employers must notify most employees that their noncompetition agreements are unenforceable. However, several pending lawsuits aim to block the Rule. Although, none have succeeded…yet. What does the Rule require? What are the chances that these lawsuits will succeed? And what should businesses do between now and September besides clutch their pearls? We’ve assembled an all-star panel of employment lawyers to answer these questions and help your business prepare.

Join us on Tuesday, August 13, 2024, 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM EDT.
