OBA Labour & Employment Law PROGRAM | Original Program Date: August 27, 2020

On July 24, 2020, the declared emergency under the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act was terminated. There are a number of key issues this raises for both employers and employees in regards to the Infectious Disease Emergency Leave regulation such as:

• An employee’s entitlement to be recalled to work
• The individual termination, mass termination, and layoff provisions of the ESA
• ESA complaints relating to termination, severance, or constructive dismissal

Our expert faculty will address these issues and other top considerations as workplaces gradually reopen:

• Key occupational health and safety issues (e.g. mandatory mask-wearing, COVID-19 testing, work refusals)
• Human rights issues (e.g. accommodation based on family status)
