Session 1 | February 21, 2024 - Disability, Religious, and Pregnancy Accommodations
Presented by: David Dubberly and Carlee Taber
Guidance regarding accommodation requests in the workplace have changed over the last year, forcing employers to navigate new regulations.

For example, we will cover requests to:
- Work remotely
- Take extra breaks during employee’s shift
- Take leaves of absence while holding job open
- Work light duty
- Not work on Saturdays or Sundays

- An overview of how AI is used in the workplace today and potential future use of AI
- How policymakers/regulators are responding to this emerging challenge, including the EEOC and NLRB
- How courts are responding
- Practical concerns with employer use of AI, such as what practices might intrude on the rights of employees and/or job applicants
