Is Your Organization Prepared for H1N1?

Center member, the DC Bar Pro Bono Program, has shared two e-alerts prepared by the law firm of Nixon Peabody for the Pro Bono Partnership of Greater New York to help your organization prepare for H1N1. The alerts explain what steps employers should consider in case they experience an outbreak of H1N1 flu among their workers. The following are available for download in PDF format:

• Employment Law Alert: Swine flu in the workplace: an update and proactive response
• OSHA Alert: The latest guidance for employers for flu season: the CDC sees employers on the "front lines" of potential outbreak
