Webinar: Doing Business in the Post COVID-era

 

The post COVID-19 era will present many challenges for the manufacturing industry and business community. New COVID-19 travel testing restriction are complicating Cross-Border travel and increasing the cost of doing business.  The travel regulations are changing on a regular basis, and each destination has separate testing and vaccination requirements making the situation even more complex.

In addition to the travel restriction, manufacturers must also contend with the tough decision on whether they should mandate COVID-19 vaccinations at the workplace. COVID-19 vaccination policies must be carefully drafted to respect the employees’ right to medical privacy and the employees’ right to be free from prohibited discrimination and harassment.  Depending on the policy stance taken, adopting a COVID-19 rapid antigen screening program to augment the vaccination policy can create a safe working environment.

This webinar will assist employers and HR professionals as they seek to address COVID-19 travel challenges, workplace screening models, and vaccination policies options and obligations.
