EO 14281 poses significant challenges for employers because it seeks to limit disparate impact liability but clashes with established state and local regulations and laws, such as New York City's law regarding the use of automated employment decision tools.

This week's key topics include: the scope of EO 14281; conflicts between EO 14281 and existing federal, state, and local laws; and best practices to mitigate risks in AI employment decisions.

As political forces target Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion programs, companies reassessing their DEI strategies must tread carefully—because while the rhetoric has shifted, the law largely hasn't.Joining us on the Emerging Litigation Podcast is employment attorney Patice L. Holland of Woods Rogers, a Principal in the firm's, Roanoke, Va., offices, where she is co-chair of the Government & Special Investigations Practice. Patice unpacks what companies need to know as they reassess their Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives in light of recent executive orders and rising political pressure. Patice explains that while the administration has moved to eliminate disparate impact liability and deprioritize federal enforcement, core legal protections under Title VII and state laws like Virginia's Values Act remain fully intact. Employers—especially federal contractors—face complex new certification requirements and exposure to potential False Claims Act liability, while private businesses must weigh operational risk, employee morale, and public perception in their decisions. We also examine the ripple effects across corporate America—from Costco and Apple, which continue to invest in DEI, to Target and Amazon, which scaled back initiatives and faced backlash. Patice offers a practical roadmap for compliance, emphasizing clear communication, leadership buy-in, and smart risk assessment. Listen in as we explore what executive orders really change about DEI law, how obligations differ for government contractors and private companies, the legal and strategic risks of altering DEI policies, and the real-world business consequences of staying the course—or stepping back.

Adare research reveals absenteeism as key indicator of organisational health in 2025

Adare, a leading provider of HR and Employment Law support services, has released the findings from its latest HR Barometer Report (9.1), underscoring absenteeism as a critical indicator of overall workplace health and performance. This comes at a time when hybrid work, economic pressures, and escalating employee stress levels are heightening the challenges for organisations. The comprehensive biannual HR Barometer Report offers deep insights into the trends, challenges, and priorities that are shaping the Human Resources landscape across Irish organisations in 2025. It highlights that while organisations are increasingly focusing on employee wellbeing, the anticipated absence rate for 2025 is forecasted to rise to an average of 8.5%. This figure has significant implications for productivity and operational costs. While 79% of organisations have an Employee Assistance Programme as part of health & wellbeing initiatives, only 8% are currently measuring performance as a direct output of wellbeing initiatives, revealing a disconnect between intention and measurable impact. Sarah Fagan, Managing Director at Adare, commented, "While our HR Barometer highlights several areas of concern, the findings around absence management point to a particularly troubling trend. Absenteeism is not simply a standalone issue - it's a key indicator of broader organisational health. Organisations are forecasting a significant average absence rate of 8.5% for 2025. "What deepens the concern is that despite an acknowledged focus on employee health and wellbeing, a mere 8% of organisations currently measure performance as a direct output of these crucial initiatives. As absence rates rise, so too do costs, inefficiencies, and the strain on team performance. Organisations must adopt a more data-driven and integrated approach to managing absence, with a focus on building sustainable performance and long-term resilience." The report also sheds light on the increasing pressures faced by employees - from rising workload demands to heightened stress and anxiety. These factors contribute to burnout and long-term health risks. Additionally, while hybrid working has become the norm, 1 in 2 organisations report challenges in maintaining employee engagement under this model. Other key findings from the HR Barometer 9.1 include: Health, Wellbeing & Absence: Organisations anticipate an average absence rate of 8.5% in 2025. While the focus on employee health and wellbeing is growing, only 8% currently measure performance as a direct output of related initiatives, indicating a potential gap between focus and measurable outcomes. HR Priorities Shift: Talent Retention emerges as the top HR priority for 2025, cited by 43% of organisations, with Employee Engagement and Experience remaining crucial at 40%. Talent Turnover and Costs: Medium-sized businesses reported an average turnover rate of 14.3% in 2024, with the average cost of replacing an employee estimated at €10,125. Rising Conflict Levels: 44% of organisations reported an increase in time spent on managing workplace conflicts. Senior management, on average, spends 29.9 days per year dealing with employee relations issues. Compensation Trends: 72% of organisations plan to increase salaries in 2025, with 21% considering changes to their pay models in response to market pressures and the sustainability of existing pay frameworks. Hybrid Working Practices: Hybrid work continues to be the norm, with employees working an average of 2.6 days in the office. However, 50% of organisations report challenges in maintaining employee engagement with this model. The Adare HR Barometer advocates for a more strategic, data-led approach to absence management, which is integrated within a broader commitment to creating a healthy, high-performing workplace. Through its Healthy Place to Work offering, Adare supports organisations in aligning wellbeing initiatives with measurable outcomes, driving sustainable performance and fosteri...

He emphasises the importance of establishing good operational processes for managing legal matters and maintaining a central repository for all business contracts and documentation. Furthermore, Theo highlights the value of having clear and easy-to-understand contracts to streamline negotiations and improve productivity.

Always review the fine print or get legal help before signing anything. Clear and Simple Contracts Save Time and Money: Theo emphasizes using easy-to-understand legal documents. Avoid overly complex language—clear contracts reduce negotiation time and accelerate sales, directly boosting revenue. Protect Customer Privacy – It's Not Optional: Transparency in how you collect, use, and store personal information is crucial. Be explicit in your privacy policy, get proper consent (especially for images), and prepare for upcoming changes in Australia's Privacy Act that will likely affect smaller businesses too. Our hero crafts outstanding reviews following the experience of listening to our special guests. Are you the one we've been waiting for? Legal Doesn't Have to Be a Handbrake on Innovation: Legal advice is best brought in before launching new products or campaigns. It helps avoid IP issues (like trademark infringements), ensures compliance, and supports sustainable growth—especially important for tech or creative businesses. Create a Legal Safety Net Without Feeling Restricted: Even without an in-house lawyer, businesses can benefit from periodic legal audits. Focus areas should include intellectual property, consumer law, insurance, contracts, and property leases. Prevention saves time, money, and stress later. Centralize and Organize All Your Contracts: Theo's top actionable tip: gather all contracts into one secure, central location. This makes renewals, compliance checks, and future reviews easier, and helps avoid costly surprises. One action small business owners can take: The One key action that Theo Kapodistrias advises small business owners to take immediately is to find all the contracts that their business has signed up to and put them in one place. He emphasises the importance of keeping these records tight, secure, and knowing where they are so they can be checked to prevent things from going wrong or being missed. Having a central repository of contracts can also be a great document to refer to and can support the business if needed.

This week, we highlight new guidance from the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and Department of Justice (DOJ) on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI)-related discrimination. We also examine the Acting EEOC Chair's letters to 20 law firms regarding their DEI practices, as well as the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) Director's orders to retroactively investigate affirmative action plans. EEOC and DOJ Warn DEI Policies Could Violate Title VII  The EEOC and the DOJ jointly released guidance on discrimination in DEI policies at work, warning that these policies could violate Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Although the guidance does not define DEI, it provides clarity on the EEOC's focus moving forward. Acting EEOC Chair Targets Law Firms Acting Chair Andrea Lucas sent letters to 20 law firms warning that their employment policies intended to boost DEI may be illegal.  OFCCP Plans Retroactive DEI Enforcement A leaked internal email obtained by The Wall Street Journal reveals that newly appointed OFCCP Director Catherine Eschbach has ordered a review of affirmative action plans submitted by federal contractors during the prior administration. These reviews will be used to help determine whether a federal contractor should be investigated for discriminatory DEI practices. - Visit our site for this week's Other Highlights and links: https://www.ebglaw.com/eltw384 Subscribe to #WorkforceWednesday: https://www.ebglaw.com/subscribe/ Visit http://www.EmploymentLawThisWeek.com This podcast is presented by Epstein Becker & Green, P.C.
