Morgan Lewis partner Jon Snare and associates Kaiser Chowdhry, Alana Genderson, Liliya Kramer, and Matthew Sharbaugh authored an article for Law360 about new workplace safety standards in Virginia.
Virginia is the first state in the nation to enact enforceable workplace safety standards to address the risks of coronavirus (COVID-19), and other states could follow suit. The regulations will be enforced by the Virginia Occupational Safety and Health Program and will apply to most private employers in Virginia.
