GREAT NEWS!! A pregnant workers fairness act is in effect!
This bill:
“ -prohibits employment practices that discriminate against making reasonable accommodations for qualified employees affected by pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions. A qualified employee is an employee or applicant who, with or without reasonable accommodation, can perform the essential functions of the position, with specified exceptions.
Specifically, the bill declares that it is an unlawful employment practice to
fail to make reasonable accommodations to known limitations of such employees unless the accommodation would impose an undue hardship on an entity's business operation;
require a qualified employee affected by such condition to accept an accommodation other than any reasonable accommodation arrived at through an interactive process;
deny employment opportunities based on the need of the entity to make such reasonable accommodations to a qualified employee;
require such employees to take paid or unpaid leave if another reasonable accommodation can be provided; or
take adverse action in terms, conditions, or privileges of employment against a qualified employee requesting or using such reasonable accommodations.”

OSHA still matters even if you are self-employed. Even if OSHA cannot cite or fine a self-employed person, the regulations still serve as valuable guidelines for working safely.

SCOTUS Takes a Pass on “Gap Time” Dispute
SCOTUS Takes a Pass on “Gap Time” Dispute
It’s two months into argument season at the Supreme Court, and we’re always keeping our fingers crossed that the justices will take up a wage and hour issue and clear up some ambiguities in the law or a circuit split. Top billing this SCOTUS term goes to Helix Energy Solutions Group, Inc. v. Hewitt, in which the Court will address whether a supervisor who earned more than $200,000 a year but was…

While I appreciate that he wants to help people with mental issues, I worry that this could go pear-shaped.
One of the (many) things in the pile of problems that has added weight to the terribly-named “defund the police” cause is the fact that the police are not trained to deal with mental health situations, and will often fall back on using force in a situation where it is not the best play. I fear that we will see some events occur which will serve as poster children for why you don’t send the cops into these kind of things.
The argument is that you send in different people than the police, people better trained for non-crime situations.
It’s possible that the fire department is better trained, but I’d think that EMS workers would be the best people to use in such a situation.
