In this episode, Gerald L. Maatman, Jr. discusses how the data
and analysis from workplace class action rulings, case filings, and
settlements showed that change is the new normal in 2020-2021. As
many pro-business precedents continued to roll out and take hold in
2020, voters elected to turn the White House from red to blue and,
as a result, likely precipitated changes in numerous areas that
will expand worker rights. Along with changes in the arbitration
landscape, the shift in Administrations is likely to bring
increased regulation of businesses, renewed enforcement efforts,
and policy changes at the agency level that will result in efforts
to abandon or overturn pro-business rules of the Trump
Administration.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general
guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought
