The federal Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (the “PWFA”) was enacted on June 27, 2023. Thereafter, the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (the “EEOC”) began the rulemaking process on regulations implementing the PWFA. On April 15, 2024, the EEOC issued those regulations, which provide guidance to employers on how to comply with the PWFA. The regulations are effective on June 18, 2024.
On April 23, 2024, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) announced a final rule, Non-Compete Clause Rule, which implements a nationwide ban on non-compete agreements for the vast majority of the American workforce. The final rule is currently set to take effect 120 days after its publication in the Federal Register. However, legal challenges to the FTC’s final rule have already begun, making the rule’s actual effective date uncertain.
