In an interview with Bloomberg News, Melissa Camire and Chantell Foley provide key insight into trends employers are seeing with regard to COVID-related employment litigation. The article also cites Fisher Phillips’ COVID-19 Employment Litigation Tracker as a key tool in measuring the total 1,348 lawsuits that have been filed related to COVID-19. Melissa explains that the most common kinds are cases filed by workers who said they needed, but were denied, time off because they contracted COVID-19 or had to take care of a sick person.
