Yesterday, the EEOC issued new guidance confirming that the Americans with Disabilities Act prohibits employers from requiring employees to take antibody or serology tests to determine if they were ever infected with COVID-19.

The EEOC indicated that this guidance might be adjusted based on future recommendations from the CDC. Authored by Peter Donati
