​Free Webinar: Legal and Practical Implications of COVID-19 Vaccine

​HCAOA members are invited to participate in a free webinar to discuss several unique and evolving issues tied to the COVID-19 vaccine, including requests to be excused from vaccination programs based on (1) religious beliefs, practices, or observances under Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act or (2) medical conditions and/or disabilities covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act, and benefits-related issues, including encouraging vaccinations as part of an employer’s wellness program.

• Update on priorities for distribution of the vaccine and the manner in which such decisions will be made

• Wage and hour issues, such as vaccine costs, compensable time, and the treatment of monetary incentives
• Employee safety, workers' compensation, and privacy-related issues
• Implementation of vaccination programs in a unionized setting, as well as the potential impact of the anti-vaccination movement and any "concerted protected activity"
• Review of employee vaccination programs for global employers
