HR outlook: broadening rights and safeguards for employees in 2024
Available: On-demand Webinar
Join BLR Managing Editor Celeste Duke, SPHR, for a 20-minute on-demand webinar where she’ll cover upcoming employment law trends employers should keep top-of-mind, most notably, the expansion of rights and protections for employees in the United States.
In this session, topic areas covered will include:
- Leave expansions: Expect new laws and tweaks to existing ones regarding paid leave, bereavement, miscarriage, and more. States like California and Illinois are leading the charge.
- Pregnancy protections: Stay compliant with PWFA and PUMP Act. More state-level protections are likely.
- Non-compete restrictions: Bans on non-compete agreements gaining traction both federally and in states like Colorado.
- EEOC focus: Expect action on harassment, discrimination, and pay data collection.
- DOL overtime rule: The DOL will finalize a new rule in April 2024, likely increasing the salary threshold for exempt employees.
- Independent contractor rule: Stricter criteria will take effect in March 2024, making it more difficult to classify workers as contractors.
