Workers' Rights Update

On August 27, 2024, EKO and the Katharine & George Alexander Community Law Center at Santa Clara Law hosted a panel presentation on recent changes and emerging trends in workers' rights.

The presentation covered critical issues, such as the recent Supreme Court cases of Groff v. DeJoy (religious accommodation) and Muldrow v. City of St. Louis (Title VII adverse action).

Panelists also discussed enacted laws and bills, including, the rebuttable presumption for retaliation and equal pay cases (SB 497), the workplace violence bill (SB 553), Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, the indoor heat standard, designated person leave, and reproductive loss and bereavement leave.

The panel offered valuable insights into key cases and legislative updates, and explored strategies to effectively advocate for workers' rights in today's legal landscape.
