The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA) is a crucial federal law that guarantees pregnant workers are provided with reasonable accommodations, ensuring they can continue their jobs without jeopardizing their health or employment. This act applies to employers with 15 or more employees and prohibits retaliation against workers who request accommodations due to pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions. Through an interactive process, employers must work collaboratively with employees to provide adjustments such as modified duties, flexible schedules, or reassignment, ensuring a safe and inclusive work environment. This course covers the key elements of the PWFA, including employee rights, employer responsibilities, and best practices for compliance.

Identify the protections and accommodations provided to pregnant employees under the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA). ; Describe how employers must engage in the interactive process to determine reasonable accommodations for pregnancy-related conditions. ; Recognize the legal obligations of employers and the consequences of retaliation or non-compliance with the PWFA.
