Ebola Outbreak: Employer Guidelines to Protect the Workplace
Instructor Profile:
Vanessa G. Nelson, MSA, SPHR, CLRL is founder and President of award-winning Expert Human Resources, which she founded to help companies maintain employment law compliance, avoid workplace litigation, reduce costs, and increase revenue. Vanessa established Expert Human Resources in 2009, after observing companies' frustrations in complying with constantly changing employment laws as well as continually dealing with workplace litigations and fines. Vanessa realized that a lot of the litigious situations that businesses encountered could be avoided by their being proactive and implementing updated polices and applying them correctly. Vanessa also recognized that many companies could not afford a full-time HR person, or department, to assist in maintaining compliance with employment laws, as well as applying policies and practices correctly; therefore she established a "portable HR" to accommodate those businesses.
Description: With several cases of Ebola diagnosed in the United States, employers should be prepared to protect the workplace, especially if employees travel to an Ebola-infected country (for business or personal reasons) or even domestically. Employees should consider the wide range of decisions that may arise including: Medical inquiries, leave from work, and educating management and employees. Additionally, employers should understand the signs in case an employee is infected, and an action plan must be implemented for keeping the workplace safe.
