Equal Employment Opportunity Commission February 2024 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

In accordance with the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act Improvements Act of 2015, this final rule adjusts for inflation the civil monetary penalty for violation of the notice- posting requirements in Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Genetic Information Non- Discrimination Act, and the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (``EEOC'' or ``Commission'') is issuing an interim final rule to amend some of its existing procedural regulations to include references to the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (``PWFA''), which requires covered employers to provide reasonable accommodations to a qualified applicant's or employee's known limitations related to, affected by, or arising out of pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions, unless the accommodation will cause the employer an undue hardship. As an interim final rule, this will become effective on the date of publication but also is subject to change based on the public comments the EEOC receives during a subsequent 60-day comment period.
