Primitivo di Manduria: 50 years of oenology world excellence

By Consorzio di Tutela del Primitivo di Manduria DOC

Primitivo di Manduria celebrates 50 years of DOC, confirming its excellence in the national and international wine scene. Its aromatic complexity, derived from the old 'alberello' vineyards and the tireless work of winemakers, contributes to its success. Each bottle contains a thousand-year tradition and the richness of the territory, conquering global palates with timeless oenological excellence.

About D.O.C Denomination.

D.O.C. stands for Denominazione di Origine Controllata (literally Controlled Designation of Origin). It is a certification applied to Italian wines that, under the law, have distinctive features of superior quality, determined by the grape varietal and the production area, as well as the techniques for processing and aging. Each D.O.C. is regulated in terms of areas, production methods, and sensory characteristics by a production specification.

EEOC Final Rule – Pregnant Workers Fairness Act

By Weiss Serota Helfman Cole + Bierman

On April 15, 2024, the EEOC published its Final Rule on the application and interpretation of the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (“PWFA”). The Final Rule will be published in the Federal Register on April 19, 2024 and the regulations will go into effect 60 days thereafter.

Here are some major takeaways:

1.An employee’s word is (usually) enough. The regulations state that a limitation is “known” once an employee “communicates” the limitation to the employer. Asking for further proof may violate the law.

2.“Pregnancy…and related medical conditions” includes a past pregnancy, fertility treatments, and the use of contraception.

The regulations specifically state that “pregnancy, childbirth, and related medical conditions” include attempts at becoming pregnant and as well as a lost pregnancy.

3.The employee does not have to identify a medical condition or use medical terms. There is no need for the employee to specify a medical condition—they only need to state that they are pregnant, were pregnant, or are experiencing post-pregnancy issues.

4.Employers cannot force an employee to take leave. An employer may not force an employee to take leave (paid or unpaid) if another reasonable accommodation is available.

5. The temporary removal of essential functions may be appropriate. As one of the EEOC’s recommended reasonable accommodations, the temporary removal of “essential functions” may be warranted.

Overall, covered entities (public and private employers with 15 or more employees) must be very careful when evaluating an employee’s need for accommodations under the PWFA. The PWFA extends to conditions that may not be considered disabilities under the Americans with Disabilities Act, so employers must adjust when an employee expresses a need for an accommodation related to pregnancy, getting pregnant, or post-partum.
