The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, or PWFA, went into effect on June 27, 2023, and is enforced by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, also known as the EEOC. The PWFA is designed to provide a wide range of protections that support pregnant workers who wish to remain working longer into their pregnancies. Specifically, the PWFA requires employers to provide reasonable accommodations to pregnant workers who are experiencing limitations due to their pregnancy. In this course, we'll explain what your rights are, provide examples of reasonable accommodations, and outline employer restrictions.
