After weeks of encouragement to stay at home to flatten the COVID-19 curve, government officials are signaling that restrictions will soon loosen, and governors in a number of states already have begun relaxing some of their executive orders to shelter in place.
Holland & Knight attorney Gina A. Fonte, co-chair of the firm's OSHA, Workplace Safety and Whistleblower Claims Team, will address recent guidance for businesses preparing workplaces for reopening in a live presentation titled "Returning to Work: COVID-19 Planning Considerations, OSHA Best Practices and Risk Mitigation for Workplace Safety."
Ms. Fonte will provide an overview of requirements, challenges and planning considerations to help employers comply with guidelines issued by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
