Overview:

We will also introduce what is trending for 2025. We are going to see some usual suspects returning and some new challenges in regulations that have to be mitigated.
2024 workplace regulations have taken Employers and professionals on a rollercoaster ride that introduced regulations impacting the workplace and placing Employers, employees professionals, HR associations employment law attornies, and other stakeholders in confusion and turmoil. Moreover, some regulations have deadlines that have passed and if not complied with, will have severe liability in the form of fines, penalties, and even criminal sanctions.
The Supreme Court has turned what was a focus by regulatory agencies with their expertise in their regulations as per the Chevron Doctrine and now is expected to be turned over to the courts for legal decisions. Although this has been confusing, regulations still apply, and have to comply. These issues have created most 2024 regulations to be questioned via litigation, but it has not stopped Employers and other stakeholders from walking on eggshells.
