COVID-19 Vaccination Requirements: What Employers Need To Know

Name: COVID-19 Vaccination Requirements: What Employers Need To Know

Date: March 2, 2021

Time: 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM PST

Event Description:

As vaccines for COVID-19 are being rolled out, everyone seems to be asking the same question: can employers require their employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19 as a condition of employment? Given a myriad of unknowns and competing considerations at play, the better question may be should they do so?

Attorneys Amy Robinson and Iván Resendiz Gutierrez as they lead a practical discussion of this fast-moving issue and highlight some key considerations for employers as they contemplate whether and how to address vaccination in their return to work planning, including:

-Balancing occupational safety and health obligations with employee privacy protections
-Complying with employment discrimination laws and disability accommodations requirements
-Labor-related limitations
-Wage and hour issues
-Workers compensation/insurance coverage
-State and local laws
-Reputational and employee-relations concerns
