The COVID Pandemic, which began in early 2020, has deeply affected the world and the workplace. Many people infected with the virus are experiencing long-term effects from their infection, known as Long COVID or Post COVID conditions (PCC). What is the impact of Long COVID? How should employees and employers navigate this chronic illness?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ACTEC Fellow Karen M. Stockmal<\/a> interviews Erica Taylor<\/a>, a staff attorney with the Atlanta Volunteers Lawyers Foundation, who is afflicted with Long COVID, to learn about her ongoing experience with this disease, talk about her strategies to combat the cognitive impacts, and offer recommendations to other Long COVID sufferers. Amy McAndrew<\/a>, a labor and employment attorney with the MidAtlantic Employers\u2019 Association, joins Karen and Erica to discuss the rights of employees and employers as they navigate Long COVID and other chronic illnesses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
