A roundtable discussion on how to address reproductive rights at work in light of the Roe v. Wade potential overturn.
This May, according to an initial draft majority opinion written by Justice Samuel Alito, the Supreme Court of the United States privately voted to strike down the landmark Roe v. Wade bill, putting individuals’ freedom of reproductive choice at risk.
Join our discussion with Legal Expert and Shareholder at Littler, Jacqueline E. Kalk, and PowerToFly’s Senior Director of DEIB, Sienna Brown, as they discuss navigating the implications of a potential overturn, as well as how employees and companies can address this important topic at work.
