Prof. Matt Bodie Quoted in New York Times about Employee Privacy and COVID-19
Professor Matt Bodie was quoted in a New York Times article covering federal guidelines that require employers to keep employee health information confidential. These requirements have posed significant challenges to employers during the COVID-19 pandemic, as they also work to maintain a safe workplace and have a responsibility to inform employees about potential exposure to infectious disease. Professor Bodie elaborated "Employers are a in a little bit of a difficult spot here. They're trying to manage the spread of Covid in their workplace, but they're also trying to protect employee confidentiality."
