Managing COVID-19 Risk During Flu Season
The global pandemic has had a considerable impact on our organizations and exposed significant vulnerabilities in workplace safety, risk management, business continuity, supply chain, and legal liabilities, etc. Although many organizations are still wrestling with these challenges, the forthcoming flu season and ongoing natural disasters will further complicate our pandemic risk mitigation efforts. This webinar will focus on current best practices for managing risk and ongoing considerations for organizations as they move through the various stages of re-opening during these challenging times with a focus on the following:
- Strategies for tracking and managing pandemic-specific regulations and requirements issued by public health agencies, regulatory agencies, and governments at the local, national, and global levels
- Best practices for risk assessments for initial re-entry, business ramp-up, and higher risk activities
- Examples of how other organizations are managing notable COVID-19 challenges including health screening, contact tracing, ventilation, and emergency preparedness
- What your organization should know and consider as we enter the flu season and the role of business when COVID-19 vaccines become available
Our featured speakers will bring their diverse experience and perspectives with managing pandemic risk in relation to their professional backgrounds in industrial hygiene, health and safety compliance, emergency management, business continuity and resilience planning, and occupational medicine.
