COVID-19 Policy Updates
NSIV no longer requires those employees who are fully vaccinated, two weeks after receiving 1 dose and or two doses depending on the type of vaccine, to wear a mask. The same policy applies to guests.
The EEOC offered long-awaited guidance on the permissibility of employer programs that offer incentives to employees who receive COVID-19 vaccinations. Read more here.
Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker signed into law legislation requiring all Massachusetts employers to provide emergency paid sick leave to employees who are unable to work for certain reasons relating to COVID-19 (“EPSL”). Learn more about the specifics here.
