Millions of people are now experiencing long-term, chronic health conditions as a result of their initial infection during the COVID-19 pandemic. Symptoms affect people in a variety of ways and can impact one’s ability to work. “Long COVID may be a disability under the Americans with Disabilities Act, so employers need to ensure accommodation processes and practices are effective in retaining much-needed workers.” A webinar from the Job Accommodation Network (JAN) on March 9, 2023 from 2 to 3 pm ET will provide insights about the impact of Long COVID in the workplace. The program will include findings from the Disability Management Employer Coalition (DMEC) on the topic as well as tips regarding navigating the accommodation process, “accommodation solutions, and practical resources from JAN and the Employer Assistance and Resource Network on Disability Inclusion (EARN).” To find out more and register, visit the JAN webpage What You Should Know About the Impact of Long COVID in the Workplace.
