Long Island Breakfast Series (EAST END) - The Big Picture: Federal Agency Shifts, New York's Latest Laws, and What's Coming Next

Join Jackson Lewis P.C. and Long Island SHRM for their annual Workplace Law Breakfast Series.

This expanded session combines a survey of transformative federal agency changes with a comprehensive rundown of New York's newest employment laws and pending legislation. HR professionals will get a full landscape view — from the EEOC's revised enforcement priorities and NLRB shifts to the state-level compliance obligations that took effect in 2026 and the bills heading toward passage in 2027.

Key Subtopics:

• The EEOC's 2025–2029 National Enforcement Plan: heightened focus on intentional discrimination, DEI scrutiny, and the Ames v. Ohio decision lowering barriers for majority-group claims 

• NLRB leadership changes: evolving positions on joint employment, handbook rules, and protected concerted activity 

• Recent New York employment law developments including the statewide credit check ban, anti-retaliation for accommodation requests, codified disparate impact liability, and paid prenatal leave 

• 2027 wage/ hour updates: minimum wage increases, exempt salary thresholds, tip/meal credits, and Paid Family Leave benefit changes 

• Pending legislation watch
