The Trump Administration and Labor Law Issues
Manesh Rath, Partner at Keller & Heckman, along with James Votaw & Benjamin Idzik, host a 30 minute webinar discussing what to expect from the new Trump Administration with respect to the Department of Labor, OSHA, and EPA.
Topics covered include:
- Potential withdrawal of the Walkaround Rule and abandonment of the proposed heat stress and emergency response rules.
- Recalibration of OSHA’s enforcement priorities: fewer worksite inspections, limiting penalties for first-time offenders and small businesses, and focusing on egregious and willful offenders.
- Slowdown in future OSHA rulemaking actions.
- Non-Compete Agreements - FTC Ban on Non-Competes, NLRB General Counsel Memo
- Independent Contractor Classifications – “entrepreneurial opportunity” under NLRB decision
- Continued efforts to prevent PFAS wastewater discharges
- Potential rework / rescheduling for TSCA PFAS Reporting final rule
- Potential pause and rework of TSCA risk evaluation for formaldehyde & related IRIS review
