WEBINAR: GETTING BACK TO BUSINESS: WHAT IS THE “NEW NORMAL” WHEN EMPLOYERS RE-OPEN?
Date: May 12, 2020 at 1 pm EST
Cost: $199 (includes unlimited attendees per organization)
As state and localities begin to relax or eliminate shelter-in-place orders, every employer is asking itself, “Should we re-open? If so, when? And how do we do it safely and in a legally compliant way?” Among the questions to be addressed:
- How should we notify our employees we are re-opening?
- If we are not bringing back everyone at once, how do we decide who to bring back first?
- With many furloughed workers receiving more in unemployment compensation benefits than the earned while employed, what if an employee wants to remain on furlough instead of returning to work?
- What will be the “standard of care” expected of every employer?
- Screening employees before the return to work… how does the ADA come into play? HIPAA?
- Screening customers? Vendors?
- Wearing masks… allowed? Required? Taking temperatures? Recording the results/data?
- What must we do to comply with the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA), and especially OSHA’s General Duty clause that applies to almost every private employer?
- Might workers’ compensation laws come into play?
- What if an employee is unwilling to return due to fear of contracting C-19 at work?
- What about an employee who says s/he is fully performing the job at home, so no need to return to the workplace?
