SUMMARY:NELAÂ NiteÂ at Noon:Â â€œFamily Responsibilities Discriminationâ€ (12/17/25)
LOCATION:via Zoom Webinar
DESCRIPTION:NELAÂ NiteÂ at Noon:Â â€œFamily Responsibilities Discriminationâ€ (12/17/25)\n\n12/17/25 12:00 PM EST\n - 12/17/25 01:30 PM EST\Description:\nNELA Nite at Noon: “Family Responsibilities Discrimination”\n \nDecember 17, 2025 from 12-1:30 PM EST via Zoom Webinar\n1.5 CLE Credit (Professional Practice)\n$25 NELA and affiliate Members / $50 Non-Members\n \nSince January 2025, over 300,000 women have left the workforce. Specifically, the share of mothers between the ages of 25-44 in the workforce has fallen almost three percentage points since this past January. Many NELA NY members have noticed an uptick in pregnancy-, gender-, and caregiver discrimination cases, likely as part of this national phenomenon. Join Liz Morris from Hastings WorkLife Law; Laura Narefsky from the National Women’s Law Center; and Carolin Guentert, of Sanford Heisler Sharp McKnight to explore some of the reasons underlying this development, including return-to-work and other recent trends in employment policies that disproportionately impact pregnant and parenting workers; changes in the EEOC’s priorities; and rolling back of civil rights protections.\n\nThe panel will then focus on the tools NELA NY practitioners can use to advocate on behalf of their clients experiencing pregnancy-, gender-, and caregiver discrimination. Specifically, the panel will give an overview of the local, state, and federal laws available to NY workers, and how to effectively and strategically deploy them in litigation and pre-litigation cases. The panel will also focus on opportunities for impact litigation under the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act and the PUMP Act, two protective federal laws that should be used by NY practitioners to advance the case law in this area. \nRegister today!\Location:\nvia Zoom Webinar\n\n,
