Webinar Recap: Exploring Labor Law Developments and Challenges in 2025

A new administration, shifting priorities, and emerging litigation trends make it crucial for business owners to stay informed about the latest labor and employment law changes. In 2025, employers must become even more proactive in understanding and adapting to these changes to remain compliant and protect their business.

In our webinar, “Exploring Labor Law Developments and Challenges in 2025,” Alexis Knapp, an attorney and shareholder at Littler with over 16 years of experience in labor and employment law, provides expert insights, practical guidance, tools, and predictions to help you navigate the complexities of the latest changes in workplace regulations.

Here's some of what she covered:

• Impacts of the new (and previous) presidential administration
• Priority areas of the EEOC, DOL, NLRB, and other agencies
• Labor and employment litigation trends
• Expanded religious, disability, pregnancy, childbirth, and related medical condition accommodations
• Pay transparency effective dates and pay discrimination case filing trends

“We have seen executive orders being issued and also older executive orders being rescinded at what has to be described as a dizzying pace,” says Knapp. This rapid succession of change, with new directives emerging daily, can be challenging for employers to remain current with requirements and maintain compliance.

Knapp underscores the importance of businesses to maintain a proactive stance in the face of evolving labor legislation. This includes utilizing available resources such as the Littler Executive Order Tracker, consulting with your legal counsel, or contacting your professional employer organization (PEO) team for additional questions.
