Keeping Our Community Safe: COVID-19 Policy and Precautions

NELA is excited to move into our second year of hosting in-person programs since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are proud of the collegiality and compassion with which our community has upheld practical measures to keep each other safe. We will continually monitor public health information and may amend our protocols consistent with changes to public health guidance. Notification will be sent if there is a change in our policy.

Vaccination

To allow for participation by the greatest number of members in our community, up-to-date vaccination as defined by the CDC will be required. Attendees and guests at the 2023 Wage & Hour Seminar will be required to provide proof of up-to-date vaccination on site. Photos of vaccination cards with the vaccinated individual’s name clearly visible are accepted. If you or a guest are unable to be vaccinated due to age, medical, or religious reasons, please contact Jeffrey Mittman to discuss an accommodation.   Accommodations for unvaccinated individuals may include:

  • Requiring a negative test for COVID-19 24 hours in advance of the event;
  • Daily rapid antigen testing provided by NELA each morning of the seminar; and
  • Remaining masked at all times in seminar settings.

Masks

Regardless of vaccination status, masks must be worn at the seminar registration desk and all staffed NELA or Institute tables. Attendees are strongly encouraged to wear masks in all plenary and concurrent sessions and in common spaces when not presenting or actively eating or drinking. Participants will be denied entry or asked to leave if experiencing symptoms of COVID-19. NELA will have masks, hand sanitizer, and a limited supply of COVID-19 rapid tests available at the registration desk. Should public health guidance change or the spread of COVID-19 becomes a concern at the event, NELA may require masking at all seminar sessions and events.

For questions at any time, please contact Jeffrey Mittman, NELA Executive Director, at (415) 625-5401 or jmittman@nelahq.org.
