Labor Law Updates

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) doesn't typically make headlines, but its fiscal year 2025 results are hard to ignore. The agency secured $660 million for workers, resolved more charges than the year before and set a record for pre-litigation recoveries. For employers, the story behind the numbers matters as much as the numbers themselves. The EEOC is handling more work, moving cases through faster and operating with greater efficiency than at any point in its 60-year history.

The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is revising the 'Know Your Rights: Workplace Discrimination Is Illegal' poster due to several executive orders. While the official release date has not yet been announced, employers should prepare to replace existing posters once the updated poster becomes available. This poster summarizes essential employee rights under federal anti-discrimination laws and must be displayed in the workplace by employers with 15 or more employees, as well as by federal contractors.
