Employers’ Legal Issues Pertaining to the Coronavirus

/by

Stone Crosby’s attorneys are prepared to assist employers with important issues related to COVID-19. Examples of legal questions our attorneys are helping employers with include:

  • What absences are covered under FMLA, and what absences are not covered?
  • What are the best practices if you find an employee tests positive or exhibits symptoms?
  • If employees are off work because of COVID-19, are employers required to pay them?
  • Can employees sue employers if they contract COVID-19 at work?
  • What about pay deductions for employee absences under the FLSA?
  • Can I require my employees to take their accrued leave?
  • Can employers ask employees if they believe they have the virus or require medical examinations, such as checking temperatures?
