 America has made history as of early morning November 9th, 2016. Not only was this election the biggest it has ever been with more Americans voting than any other election season, it is also the first time the President Elect has no political experience whatsoever. Americans everywhere have been wondering what will change with a President Trump, we are wondering how it will impact the HR world.
Recently I read an article by Ere Media that put Trump’s policies in perspective. Trump doesn’t support minimum wage. He suggests that tax breaks will be better for American workers. Trump is likely to reverse the changes the FLSA proposed. Though we don’t know exactly where Mr. Trump stands on gender pay equity laws, we know he does not support policy action regarding pay equity laws. It is not likely that we will see any laws passed regarding this issue. Trump is wanting more time off for working mothers as he supports a 6 week paid maternity leave. His policy does not however support paternity leave or leave for adoptions. Trump will repeal and replace “Obamacare” and create his own health care insurance policy (Mykkah Herner, Ere Media). We can say that a lot of the major issues will change but not as dramatically as we once thought when he was campaigning. Trump’s policies will impact HR but the changes he wants will take time.
