DEI and Anti-Discrimination: Updates on Changing Obligations and Enforcement
Description

Employers are navigating a rapidly evolving landscape as federal agencies, courts, and executive branch officials reassess the legal boundaries of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives and anti-discrimination obligations. Recent executive actions, shifting enforcement priorities, and legal challenges have created uncertainty regarding workplace policies, hiring and promotion practices, employee resource groups, training programs, and other initiatives designed to support workforce inclusion.

Join the Labor and Employment attorneys at Spencer Fane for an overview of the current legal framework governing workplace discrimination and DEI programs, recent federal developments, emerging enforcement trends, and challenges to executive authority. The program will conclude with practical recommendations to help employers evaluate risk, maintain compliance, and confidently navigate this changing regulatory environment.
