This week's HR Hero What's New article covers various topics of interest for employers, including the complexities of employee political speech protections in the workplace and the importance of preventing "double-dipping" from paid parental leave and Colorado FAMLI leave. It also highlights New Hampshire’s evolving and costly discovery process in legal matters and addresses the increasing role of AI in HR.
Recent news includes a 5th Circuit decision affirming the DOL's authority to set minimum salary requirements, an EEOC settlement with a Charlotte-based pancake chain, and updates on the FTC noncompete ban, which is temporarily blocked. The NLRB has revised its stance on consent orders again, and employers need to stay aware as the tip credit is being reintroduced. Compliance updates in Maryland require wage ranges and benefits to be disclosed in job postings as of October 1, 2024. Several states, including Arizona, California, Colorado, and others, have also made updates to their hiring laws and protections.
Additionally, new resources are available, such as a podcast on diversity in law and a handbook for FLSA compliance in state and local governments.
