Description
This panel will discuss two issues surrounding an employer’s rights and responsibilities after Dobbs. The first presentation will discuss an employer’s right under ERISA to assist its employees in obtaining a legal abortion after Dobbs. The second presentation will focus on the attempt of many employers to use the ever-expanding protections for religiously affiliated employers (including for-profit employers) to escape liability under our employment discrimination laws.
- William Reynolds, Employer-Sponsored Plans to Assist Employees in Obtaining an Abortion and ERISA
