COVID-19 has upended virtually every aspect of the business community, including rights and obligations that control the employer-employee relationship. As states move forward with reopening plans, business need to navigate questions which have not been asked before: Does coronavirus qualify as a disability under the ADA? Is an employee who does not have COVID-19, but has an underlying medical condition which puts them at risk of serious complications from the virus entitled to reasonable accommodation? What types of accommodations might be necessary as a result of COVID-19?
This program answers these questions and provides best practices for employers, as well as guidance for employees who are reentering the work environment.
