Presenter: James R. Grasso

Phillips Lytle LLP Partner James R. Grasso presented at a Buffalo Niagara Partnership (BNP) webinar titled, “Considerations for HR, Operations & Sr. Leaders” on Friday, April 16. The webinar kicks off BNP’s “Preparing Your Business for COVID-19 Vaccines” Three-Part Webisode Series

Mr. Grasso and the BNP gave an overview of up-to-date New York State guidance and CDC recommendations on vaccine groups, current distribution sites and opportunities for employers to administer vaccines.

Topics:

  • Is the vaccine covered under insurance?
  • Safety and efficacy information – why it works/why it’s important/herd immunity
  • HR issues – revisiting the issue of mandated vaccines vs. allowable exceptions
  • PTO for vaccines – explain the new NYS mandate
  • Other steps employers should take
