ABOUT THE EVENT

Not only is the ADA complicated but when you add COVID-19 into the mix it becomes a compliance nightmare for employers.  So many questions that your HR department has to navigate daily such as whether COVID-19 is even a disability under the ADA. 

If it is a disability, would it always qualify as a disability or only when it is considered to be “substantially limiting” an individual in a major life activity?  Once an employee has COVID-19 if you determine it does in their case qualify as a disability, what are your responsibilities for compliance with the ADA?  Would you be required to allow a COVID-19 positive patient to work from home or take a leave of absence under the ADA? The answers to these questions will be provided in this webinar by an expert in employment law, Melissa Fleischer, Esq. 

What you will learn from this webinar:

  • What is the definition of a disability under the ADA?
  • Does COVID-19 meet the definition of being a disability under the ADA?
  • If an employee has COVID-19 that does constitute a disability, what are an employer’s obligations for compliance with the ADA?
  • Understanding the different types of accommodations HR might need to provide to a COVID-19 employee
  • How to engage in the interactive process if an employee with COVID-19 requests a reasonable accommodation
  • And much more
