On March 3, 2022, the President signed into law the Ending
Forced Arbitration of Sexual Assault and Sexual Harassment Act of
2021. A product of the Me Too Movement, the new law allows
individuals bringing sexual assault and sexual harassment claims
who entered into predispute arbitration agreements or class- or
collective-action waivers to reject those agreements and waivers
and bring those claims in court and via a class or collective
action. The law applies to any claims arising after the date of
enactment.
In addition, California law as it currently stands bans all
mandatory predispute arbitration agreements in employment and
Congress recently passed the Forced Arbitration Injustice Repeal
Act of 2022 (FAIR Act), which would also ban mandatory predispute
arbitration agreements if it becomes law.
Times are uncertain for employers who rely on arbitration.
