Anti-discrimination Laws in a COVID-19 World: What Employers Need to Know About ADA, Rehabilitation Act, and Other EEO Laws - Michigan Chamber of Commerce

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 informative COVID-19 webinar will provide the answers to these questions and many more to ensure that your HR department is prepared.

This webinar will be recorded and available on-demand shortly after live webinar.
