Feds Demand Employers Use Workers’ Preferred Pronouns and Allow Them to Use Bathrooms That Match Their Gender Identity or Face Punishment
Here we go.
The federal government warned employers that if they don’t use workers’ preferred pronouns or stop them from using bathrooms that align with their ‘gender identity’ they will face punishment.
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) on Monday updated its guidance on workplace harassment to cover transgender, non-binary and other LGBTQ workers.
The Democrat-led EEOC voted 2-3 on Friday to update its guidance.
Employers can find themselves in court if they do not follow the new anti-bias laws and fail to adhere to the EEOC guidelines.
Reuters reported:
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission on Monday said employers refusing to use transgender workers’ preferred pronouns and barring them from using bathrooms that match their gender identity amounts to unlawful workplace harassment under federal anti-discrimination law.
