- If you're an employer, you likely struggle to comply with federal regulations issued by the DOL, NLRB, or the EEOC, especially when agency positions change. On Friday, June 28, 2024, the Supreme Court overruled Chevron, USA Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council.
In 1984, the Supreme Court first decided the landmark Chevron decision, which requires courts to defer to the legal views of federal agencies-including the agencies that enforce labor and employment laws.
Because of the Court's decision in June, courts will now give statutes their "best" interpretation, meaning agencies will have less leeway to write broad rules. Instead, they will have to write rules that are closer to statutory language. They may also have to defend some existing rules against closer scrutiny in court. And that closer scrutiny could upset some recently adopted or proposed rules, such as rules on overtime, safety inspections, and independent contracting.
During this 60-minute webinar, Alex MacDonald, Shareholder with Littler's Workplace Policy Institute, will answer:
- What is Chevron deference?
- What did the Court decide?
- How does this decision affect labor and employment law?
- What should employers watch for now?
