Understanding Employer Obligations Under the PWFA
This conversation provides a comprehensive overview of the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA), discussing its implications, scope, and the responsibilities of employers.

They also highlight the role of the EEOC in providing guidance and enforcing the act, as well as the differences between the PWFA and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
