The US Supreme Court has agreed to decide on several significant employment law issues. One key case will determine whether retired workers can sue their former employers for disability discrimination related to post-employment benefits under the Americans with Disabilities Act, a matter that has divided federal appeals courts. Additionally, the Court will address how difficult it should be for employers to prove exemptions from overtime pay and other legal protections granted by US wage laws. In a related development, a federal judge has temporarily blocked a Biden administration rule that would expand the requirement for construction contractors to pay prevailing wages, impacting $200 billion of federally funded infrastructure projects. This decision follows a request from a retired Florida firefighter and was made on Monday.
