On March 24, 2011, the EEOC released the much-anticipated final regulations pertaining to the ADA Amendments Act (ADAAA), which was signed into law by President Bush in September 2008. These new regulations change much of the existing legal framework relating to disability law, and employers are well served to immediately review how these changes will affect their current practices.
The highlights of these new regulations — hot off the press — will be discussed during Foley’s latest Labor & Employment Inner Workings Web conference on April 18, 2011 at 11:30 CT. We will highlight the following changes to the ADAAA regulations and more, including the “regarded as” definition, major life activities redefined, and the nine new rules of construction.
The Web conference is complimentary; however, registration is required. To register, please Register Here. For additional information, please contact Kristen Martin at kmartin@foley.com.
