United States | June 30, 2021June is Pride Month and 2021 marks one year since the United States Supreme Court handed down its landmark decision for LGBTQ rights in Bostock v. Clayton County. The Court held that Title VII's prohibition against discrimination in employment "because of sex" includes sexual orientation and gender identity and that an employer who fires an employee for being gay or transgender violates federal law.
Please join us for an in-depth discussion of Bostock, its immediate effect and its future ramifications.
Topics will include:
- Impact on employers and employees
- Expanding the scope of claims of sex and gender discrimination
- Attempts to limit Bostock based on the defense of free exercise of religion
