As the Coronavirus spreads, employers are finding themselves in a conundrum that seems to grow exponentially, along with the disease. Decisions about working remotely, evaluating potential workplace hazards, and responding to employee concerns, and maintaining business operations are just a few of the issues confronting employers.

In addition to the above issues, in this webinar, we will discuss an employer’s legal obligations in the face of the pandemic and provide some practical guidance for dealing with the crisis.

Course Outline:-

• When you can and can’t require employees to be tested:
• Wage and hour law compliance including remote work requirements and potential shutdowns or furloughs
• Sick leave and other leaves of absence, including when and how employers must provide sick leave or other statutory leaves of absence for employees affected by the coronavirus
• The Families First Coronavirus Response Act
• Employee privacy, including when an employer can request health-related information from employees and when and how an employer can communicate with employees about a diagnosed case in the workplace
• Potential employer liability to employees who become infected by COVID-19 at work

Why Should You Attend:-

The Coronavirus may have brought much of the world as we know it to a temporary halt. Employment laws, and employers’ obligations, however, are not on hold.

Employers still have an obligation to provide their employees with a safe, workplace, free of harassment, and discrimination. Employers are still required to make reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with disabilities.

But how does an employer meet these seemingly competing interests?

With Congress the passage of the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, and some States looking to file suit, the legal landscape has changed and may continue to change for a while.

In this webinar, we will explore those and other issues relevant to employers in today’s climate.
