Cathy is the Legislative Chair of SVSHRM. At the Chapter’s June meeting, Cathy will update members on state and federal legislative and regulatory changes and recent significant court opinions. These include the DOL’s recent increase to the minimum salary for exempt white collar employees, the FTC’s ridiculous non-compete ban, the EEOC’s final regs on the PWFA that have given pregnancy “most favored nation status”, the NLRB’s recent opinions that have upended required union recognition and bargaining requirements, and the employment statutes that were passed the Virginia General Assembly in the 2024 session (and, as important, the ones that were vetoed by Governor Youngkin.)
