The proposed bill, titled the "Freedom of Conscience in the Workplace Act," establishes new regulations regarding gender identity and employment practices in Florida. It creates a new section in the Florida Statutes that defines key terms such as "employee," "contractor," "employer," "gender identity," and "gender ideology." The bill asserts that a person's sex is an immutable biological trait and prohibits employees and contractors from being required to use pronouns that do not correspond to their biological sex. Additionally, it mandates that job applications can only inquire about male or female sex, excluding nonbinary options. The bill also protects individuals from adverse personnel actions based on their deeply held beliefs regarding gender identity and provides for administrative and civil remedies for violations.

Furthermore, the bill amends existing law to make it unlawful for employers receiving state funding to require training or activities related to sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression as a condition of employment. It reenacts certain subsections related to administrative and civil remedies to incorporate these amendments. The Department of Management Services is authorized to adopt rules to administer the new provisions. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
