COVID-19 news galore from the EEOC and DOL. Let’s discuss it here and on Facebook Live at 11:30 AM EDT

Kate Bischoff and I are looking forward to hanging out with you today — even you, dad — at 11:30 EDT today at The Employer Handbook Facebook Fan Page.

We’ll look at how this return-to-work thing is going and what employers still need to do to prepare. Of course, we’ll imitate your lawyers and say, “It depends,” as we address some of your questions. (If you’ve procrastinated, you can still ask some hypothetical ones here. Just don’t expect any legal advice in return. Generally, lawyers get paid for that. And since you’re not paying us, there is no attorney-client relationship.)

We’ll also cover some of the latest COVID-19 news, such as…

The EEOC’s updated ADA guidance.

Actually, this is old news. Like 24 hours old. I covered this yesterday on LinkedIn. (Another reason to connect with me there.)

The DOL’s updated FFCRA FAQs

It’s all here (starting at No. 89). Nothing earth-shattering. Lots of “it depends” stuff and much of what we already knew, such as eFMLA is available if summer camp or childcare isn’t available for the kiddos.

And no EEO-1’s this year 🤯🤔😁🎈🎉🎇

Yep.

YAAAAAAAASSSSSSS!

Bonus!

Remember that free webinar, “ANSWERED! 10 Burning Questions about Return to Work Post-COVID,” I did on Wednesday with Ben Eubanks of Lighthouse Research & Advisory?

Well, here is a link to the recording.

And here is a link to the raw transcript.

Now, I’ll see you today at 11:30 AM EDT.
