Overview (Program Summary)

A program hosted by:

ACC Dallas - Fort Worth
Overview: 
This program will examine how a myriad of COVID safety rules and regulations require employers and their governing boards to balance risk tolerance, complex legal issues, and the practical implications of their decisions.  As companies rollout or avoid vaccination policies, a number of critical business areas essential to a company's success conflate, including employee health and safety, employee morale and retention, an inclusive corporate culture, and litigation and reputational risk management.
 
In the context of these critical business areas, this ACC program will address: 
 
·      Recent legislation providing COVID liability protection;
·      Mandatory versus voluntary vaccination policies;
·      Wage-and-hour implications (and incentives) relating to vaccination policies;
·      COVID vaccination regulations and executive orders for large employers and federal contractors;
·      Status of legal challenges to OSHA's Emergency Temporary Standard and executive orders;
·      
Dealing with disability and religious-accommodation requests; 
·      The Board's role in crafting vaccination policies and overseeing remote-working arrangements that may continue after the pandemic.
