President-Elect Donald Trump is poised to expand upon policies he implemented during his first term in office, such as those emphasizing limited government, states’ rights and lower taxes. Additionally, it is anticipated that the newly elected president and his administration will target many Biden Administration policies on the environment, immigration, foreign policy, and the workplace. Many of these actions could be set forth by executive order in the initial days and weeks of a second Trump Administration. We are focusing on the workplace changes impacting Employers and professionals.
Now that we know Donald Trump will return to the White House as President, it’s time for employers to take a look at what they might expect during his second term in office. We have gathered insights from some key trending changes we will see based on the differences between the current administration and the new administration coming in in January 2025.
Every administration has their own focus when they enter the presidency, however Employers have to switch on and off all the workplace regulations as these changes happen. This challenge has made it extremely difficult to mitigate the changes in their workplace policies every time a new administration wins an election. Moreover, there are changes that have been put in place and deadlines for Employers tied to them. The following workplace regulations are impacted:
- Overtime salary threshold already passed the July 1, 2024, deadline and it is expected that the January 1, 2025, deadline may change
- Pay equity
- Pay Data Collections by the EEO-1 reporting may not return as promised.
- Non-Competes Focused on Employer Friendly Laws
- Immigration Reform and Foreign Workers/Deportation of Workers in Agricultural industries
- Independent Contractors vs Employee Classification is at risk
- Dei Programs Scaled Back
- Paid Leave Will Be Superseded in the States not Federal.
- No Regulations for Artificial Intelligence when it comes to workplace activity and Employers may be Liable
- Workplace Safety Protections may be scaled back
Why one should attend the training:
As you can see, there are a plethora of workplace regulations that are at risk if not changed to accommodate the new regime. However, Employers must ensure that all changes are made before the new administration takes over. In addition, Employers need to ensure they are aware of the legal changes expected and the deadlines they need to mitigate. This training will provide the regulations updates that Employers need to be aware of, the regulations that are expected and the policies that need to be in place to be compliant. This is the time to dedicate getting this knowledge and preparing for workplace compliance.
