About This Course:
The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA) mandates reasonable accommodations to known limitations related to pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions.
This law requires that employers grant pregnant workers reasonable accommodations - temporary job changes needed to maintain a healthy pregnancy and, in some situations, to help an employee recover from or deal with post-pregnancy related medical conditions - unless doing so would impose an undue hardship.
Though the PWFA has some similarities to the ADA, there are many distinct differences. For instance:
Did You Know / Some Of The Things You Will Learn :
A person other than an employee could be covered under the PWFA Employers can be liable for PWFA violations if a supervisor mishandles a pregnancy accommodation request Entities other than the "qualified individual" may make accommodation requests on behalf of the pregnant worker Employers cannot use their "ADA Reason Accommodation" forms for PWFA To properly administer the PWFA, employers must understand the key concept of "known limitation" and what physical and mental conditions could be involved Which laws - the FMLA, ADA, or PWFA - take precedence Employers may not require a qualified employee affected by pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions to accept an accommodation other than any reasonable accommodation arrived at through the interactive process The restrictions on employers seeking supporting medical documentation Covered Topics :
In addition to the list above, some key areas - and potential problems - for PWFA administration include:
Who is covered under the law (Hint: It's not just employees!) Which people or entities can notify/request a reasonable accommodation Needed precautions for your managers and supervisors Specialized rules for reasonable accommodations How to handle PWFA's interactive process requirements Medical certification rules - very different from the ADA rules Integration with FMLA, ADA, and other leave laws Documentation and recordkeeping requirements Program Benefits :
