Traditionally, employers have had considerable control over what types of pregnancy benefits it provided to their female employees. The rule was simple – treat pregnant workers the same as you treat any other temporarily “disabled” individual. In recent guidance, the EEOC is trying to change the platform – stating that employers must now provide accommodations to pregnant workers if it can be done reasonably. After the Young v. UPS decision, Congress responded by passing the Pregnancy Fairness Workers Act. 

Agenda:

  • Brief history of the Pregnancy Discrimination Act and court interpretations;
  • What it means to treat pregnant workers the “same” as others with temporary disabilities;
  • Pregnancy issues under the Americans with Disabilities Act;
  • Pregnancy and the Family and Medical Leave Act;
  • The EEOC’s current stance on accommodations for pregnant workers;
  • The Pregnancy Fairness Workers Act

Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
I understand that the presenter may have been nervous, however I felt like she was stuttering her way through the presentation and not fully reading the slide so she misspoke several times throughout the session. That being said, I would have expected for the presenter to be an expert in the area, and was surprised that she was reading off the slides instead of paraphrasing and being able to speak based on her knowledge of the topic. If I'd known that she was going to just read the slides word for word, I would have just downloaded the presentation and read on my own time.

Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
I thought the moderators comment about the names the EEOC used in their presentation was an odd comment. I assume the EEOC is trying to be inclusive of all backgrounds and would expect the moderator to recognize that.

Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
The presenter was asked to 'field' questions due to 20 mins remaining - which they graciously accommodated and then several questions were submitted and the facilitator asked the presenter to essentially shorten their answers,,, Perhaps it would add value to post in the chat to have questions submitted during the 'open 20 mins' versus rushing responses now that the allotted time expired. Just a thought
