# Webinar: What is on the EEOC’s Agenda? LGBT Rights in the Workplace

 May 13, 2016

 

 

 

 

 

 

Please join Kelley Drye’s Labor and Employment practice group for a special webinar presentation on May 25th that will explore the shifting, often controversial, and important landscape for employers regarding LGBT rights in the workplace.

With the right to same-sex marriage established, the workplace has become the next civil rights frontier. The tide has clearly turned: While Title VII does not expressly prohibit discrimination against LGBT individuals, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has now pronounced that federal law offers protection. The DOJ and the OFCCP are also backing this approach, while Congress considers federal legislation protecting LGBT individuals.
