As we have noted previously, two laws have taken effect this year relating to workers and pregnancy: the Providing Urgent Maternal Protections for Nursing Mothers Act and the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act.  On August 23th from 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM CT, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the Department of Labor will jointly present a webinar to provide updates on these new laws and other regulatory issues relating to women in the workplace.  Those interested in attending the free webinar may register here.
