2020 - Accommodating Pregnant and Nursing Women in the Workplace

OVERVIEW
Join us in this webinar to familiarize yourself with pregnancy and nursing-related rights and responsibilities of employers and employees. While pregnancy and nursing are not considered disabilities, many pregnancy-related conditions are considered disabilities. The Pregnancy Discrimination Act requires employers to make modifications or accommodations to a pregnant and/or nursing worker’s job in a manner similar to those provided to a disabled employee. This could include adjusting job-related duties, providing additional breaks, or implementing lifting limitations and other safety procedures.
