Law Effective September 1, 2016
Under a new law in New Hampshire, an employer may not retaliate against an employee solely because he or she requests a flexible work schedule.The law does not require an employer to accommodate a flexible work schedule, nor does it create a cause of action for failure to provide a flexible work schedule at an employee's request.
Note: Employers may have related obligations under other federal, state, and/or local laws, such as the reasonable accommodation requirements of the federal Americans with Disabilities Act or the leave requirements of the federal Family and Medical Leave Act.
