[National Business and Disability Council at The Viscardi Center]
Webinar: What You Need to Know About the ADA and COVID-19
June 24 - 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM ET
The world has never faced a pandemic the likes of COVID-19. In a very short time, most non-essential employers shifted to remote work settings to maintain operations and create a culture that connects with employees in a virtual environment. To comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), employers must develop proper protocol to ensure sustainable workplace safety in response to COVID-19 and for the future.
Through this webinar, the National Business & Disability Council (NBDC) at The Viscardi Center will provide organizations with best practices and insights to ensure compliance, while providing workplace safety to prevent the further spread of COVID-19. Session objectives include:
1. Clarify how disability-related inquiries and health condition assessments related to COVID-19 are to be managed
2. Ensure that confidentiality is maintained
3. Identify best practices to recruit and onboard new hires; and
4. Prepare for having employees return-to-work.
Additional topics covered include:
* Protecting the workforce when an employee calls in sick
* Determining if the ADA requires a doctor's note certifying fitness for duty when employees return-to-work
* Screening applicants for symptoms of COVID-19; and
* Reasonable accommodations during the pandemic.
Panelists:
* Brian East, Senior Attorney from Disability Rights Texas
* Jennifer Mathis, Director of Policy and Legal Advocacy at the Bazelon Center for Mental Health Law
