This week, we break down the enforcement of the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA), the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s (EEOC’s) EEO-1 report filing delay, and the U.S. Department of Labor’s (DOL’s) recent opinion on the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA).
PWFA Takes Effect
Starting June 27, the EEOC began accepting charges under the PWFA. The federal law applies to public and private employers with at least 15 employees.
EEOC Sets New Tentative EEO-1 Report Filing Start Date
On June 30, the EEOC announced that it was pushing back the already-later-than-usual mid-July start date for 2022 EEO-1 report filing to the fall of 2023.
DOL: Paid Holidays Don’t Count Toward FMLA Intermittent Leave
The DOL released an opinion letter clarifying its position that paid holidays do not count toward FMLA intermittent leave.
