Join Akerman LLP for an interactive, virtual roundtable discussion where our cross practice team of panelists will discuss the varying degrees of privacy risks that are now a daily part of pandemic work life.

- Latest trends in return-to-work policies and procedures
- Retirement plan-related insurance coverage best practices that can limit new cybersecurity and cybercrime exposure
Employment aspects including:
- Temperature taking of employees upon reentry into the workplace
- COVID-19 mandatory disclosure policy upon positive test or known exposure
- Policy directive to leave work immediately if COVID-19 symptoms appear
- Upon reentry, what to ask, what not to say, what not to share
- Privacy and security considerations with contact tracing apps and other electronic surveillance tools
Data privacy and security aspects including:
- Privacy by design, including creating a plan to handle issues impacting privacy and cybersecurity and how best to adapt to the circumstances created by COVID-19
