Anti-discrimination Laws in a COVID-1...
Description
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the workplace is unprecedented and ever-changing. In this webinar, employment law experts from the law firm of Miller Canfield will provide a background understanding of Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) laws that need to be reviewed and reconsidered with COVID-19 in mind, as employees return to work. Some questions that will be explored in this webinar include:
- Does COVID-19 qualify as a disability under the ADA? Always, or just in some cases?
- What are an employer’s obligations if an employee is protected by the ADA when they have COVID-19? Are they entitled to a reasonable accommodation?
- Would that entitle them to a leave of absence or to be able to work remotely while they have COVID-19?
- Are employers required to provide older workers accommodations because they are more at risk?
- Can you maintain a temperature log of all your employees?
This webinar will be recorded and available on-demand shortly after live webinar.
