The U.S. Supreme Court has held in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, No. 19-1392 (June 24, 2022) that there is no federal protection of abortion rights, overturning nearly 50 years of precedent from the Court’s decision in Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood Pennsylvania v. Casey on the issue. The ruling now enables each state to set its own legal requirements regarding abortions.
There are several employer considerations that the courts and government agencies will likely address in the future. This would include, for example, issues involving leave management, requests for accommodations and anti-discrimination laws.
It is of utmost importance to us to ensure employees have access to safe, legal, and high-quality health care. We are carefully reviewing the ruling and evaluating how it may impact the fully insured coverage provided through the ADP TotalSource Health and Welfare Plan.
In the meantime, as a service to our clients, below we have prepared a brief communication that you can send to your employees as you deem appropriate.
