COVID-19 Guidance for Employers: Part II, Preparing for the Coming Wave of Legal Claims

Unfortunately, once the immediate health and safety issues arising from the COVID-19 pandemic appear to be in the rear-view mirror, the road ahead may be just as perilous. In March, employers scrambled to quickly comply with stay-at-home orders, to trim staff through furloughs and RIFs, or to close their businesses entirely. In April, they stayed the course, implementing safety precautions such as requiring temperature checks and face masks and extending furloughs and leaves – often cutting off continued pay and benefits. What actions did employers take (or not take) that may now leave them open to litigation?

Littler's Phoenix attorneys will discuss how Arizona employers can prepare for the coming wave of legal claims and take steps now that will hopefully minimize their ultimate liability.
