(a) Within 1 year after December 29, 2022, the Commission* must issue accessible-format regulations under subchapter II of chapter 5 of title 5 to carry out this chapter. The regulations must give examples of reasonable accommodations for known pregnancy-, childbirth-, or related-medical-condition limitations.
(b)(1) Within 6 months after the Commission issues those regulations, the Board defined in section 1301 of title 2 must issue regulations under section 1384 of title 2 implementing this chapter for employees described in section 2000gg(3)(B), under section 2000gg–2(b). (2) Those regulations must have the same substantive rules as the Commission’s regulations unless the Board determines, for good cause stated with its regulations, that changing them would implement this chapter’s rights and protections more effectively.
Not later than 1 year after December 29, 2022, the Commission* shall issue regulations in an accessible format in accordance with subchapter II of chapter 5 of title 5 to carry out this chapter. Such regulations shall provide examples of reasonable accommodations addressing known limitations related to pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions.
Not later than 6 months after the Commission issues regulations under subsection (a), the Board (as defined in section 1301 of title 2) shall (in accordance with section 1384 of title 2), issue regulations to implement the provisions of this chapter made applicable to employees described in section 2000gg(3)(B) of this title, under section 2000gg–2(b) of this title.
The regulations issued under paragraph (1) shall be the same as substantive regulations issued by the Commission under subsection (a) except to the extent that the Board may determine, for good cause shown and stated together with the regulations issued under paragraph (1) that a modification of such substantive regulations would be more effective for the implementation of the rights and protection under this chapter.
