Third Thursday: Six Months of COVID-19 – What Employers Should Know Now

Please join us for a special edition of Third Thursday – Crowell & Moring’s Labor and Employment Update, a webinar series dedicated to helping our clients stay on top of developing law and emerging compliance issues.

As the United States continues to struggle with the COVID-19 outbreak and has, in many places, begun reopening, public health, business continuity and legal issues are changing daily.  Congress is currently debating another round of federal stimulus legislation to help businesses and individuals impacted by the pandemic.  Employers are wading through many new developments in order to continue operating their businesses – from state and local reopening requirements, new closure orders, federal, state, and local laws mandating leave for employees who are unable to work, and health and safety considerations.  

During this webinar, we will discuss recent developments regarding proposed legislation, litigation against employers arising out of COVID-19 issues, as well as compliance with employment laws related to COVID-19, with particular emphasis on reopening orders, guidance from CDC, EEOC and OSHA, and employee leave laws.   We will also summarize emerging best practices for employers on issues such as maintaining on-site employees and responding to employee concerns and requests for accommodations.

This webinar is scheduled for July 30, 2020, at 12:00 pm Eastern. We hope that you can join us and participate in a lively discussion of these issues.
