Government Affairs

The Department of Labor has again updated its guidance regarding the Families First Coronavirus Response Act ("FFCRA"). How we got here:

The FFCRA went into effect on April 1, 2020, which we wrote about here.
The DOL issues temporary regulations interpreting the law, which we wrote about here.
Last month, a New York federal court invalidated portions of those regulations, which we wrote about here.
In light of this decision, the DOL reevaluated portions of the temporary regulations and subsequently issued “revisions and clarifications” to those temporary regulations, which went into effect on September 16, 2020.
