Transitioning to Normalcy: HR Concerns

This is a Zoom webinar. The Zoom link will be sent to registrants the morning of May 19.

Churches and organizations are starting to think about transitioning employees back to onsite work. How can you act responsibly to protect your staff’s safety and limit your liability through the transition? Trust GKH’s experienced lawyers to find answers to your workplace questions like:

• What do I do if an employee is uncomfortable or refusing to return to work?
• What are my requirements about paid leave and extended FMLA leave?
• Am I allowed to check my employees’ temperatures?
• What are the state requirements for wearing masks, cleaning, and social distancing while at work? What are my responsibilities to enforce these in my workplace?
• What are my obligations under the Americans with Disabilities Act to employees who have underlying health conditions?

Bring your questions; there will be ample time for Q&A during the webinar.
