The EEOC has issued guidance to help employers ensure that they remain ADA-compliant while addressing workplace needs in preparing for the 2009 H1N1 flu virus (swine flu) or a similar health situation.  It includes guidance on such issues as what types of disability-related questions are permitted, what type of medical examinations  are legal, and what kinds of reasonable accommodations could be required should a pandemic flu situation arise. The EEOC guidance is available at:  http://www.eeoc.gov/facts/h1n1_flu.html.
