Trump's First 100 Days Sow Regulation Uncertainty for Companies

Bloomberg Law
Labor and employment attorney Timothy Taylor was quoted in a Bloomberg Law article about the impact of workforce reductions and enforcement slowdowns at the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) under the Trump Administration. Mr. Taylor commented on the significant decrease in regulatory oversight, particularly the suspension of activity at the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP), which has led to a decline in enforcement of federal contractor discrimination laws. The article also explored how the department is expected to realign and reassess enforcement efforts in other labor areas such as workplace safety and wage compliance amid ongoing structural changes.

"What I'm seeing really is just a general slowdown in enforcement, most prominently, and obviously, that's the closure of all the OFCCP activity," he said.
