The COVID-19 Vaccine – Legal and Practical Implications

COVID-19 Vaccines are here – in Florida, they are now available for anyone over 18 years old and, in some circumstances, for those over 16. More supply is promised and another vaccine is being tested and seeking Emergency Use Authorization. With the vaccine program rolling, what can and should employers be doing, if anything? Since employers have settled into post-COVID operations, is there anything they should change as their workplaces get vaccinated? 

The legal landscape involving vaccination programs in the employment setting has evolved over the years, particularly in health care, which may provide a "road map" in addressing many of the issues dealing with the COVID-19 vaccine. There are, however, many unique and evolving issues tied to the COVID-19 vaccine including the questions posed above, which will be covered during this seminar.
