As featured in #WorkforceWednesday®: This week, we cover the striking down of abortion protections for workers and LGBTQ harassment guidance, as well as the beginning of a brief EEO-1 reporting season (concluding on June 24).
Abortion Protections for Workers Struck Down
A Louisiana federal judge vacated portions of a rule implementing the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act that defined abortion as a medical condition and required accommodations.
Federal Court Vacates LGBTQ Harassment Guidance
The U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas has moved to strike portions of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s (EEOC’s) guidance on workplace harassment against LGBTQ employees. The court ruled that the Biden-era EEOC guidance expanded “the scope of sex beyond the biological binary.”
EEO-1 Reporting Opens with a Tight Deadline
The EEO-1 reporting period is now open. All private employers in the United States with 100 or more employees are required to file, as are federal contractors with 50 or more employees that meet certain criteria. The deadline to file is just weeks away—June 24—so employers are moving quickly.
