Webinar: Criminal Risks in Times of Covid-19 - 09/06/2020

Criminal Risks in Times of Covid-19

We are living through a health crisis, with many thousands around the world losing their lives to a never before encountered disease.  In these unprecedented circumstances, life and death decisions are being made by all companies, whatever their business, every day.  In this webinar,  experts from Argentina, Brazil, England, France, Italy and Spain will discuss the potential criminal liability from the response to the covid-19 public health crisis, arising from:

• The provision of safe working conditions; 
• The supply and availability of personal protective equipment;
• The care of vulnerable groups;
• Decisions to provide (or deny) medical treatment; 

We will also discuss the potential for criminal liability for those responsible for policy to tackle the crisis at local, regional and central government, and the process of criminal investigation and prosecution of individuals and companies.   

The seminar is aimed at employers, healthcare providers, company directors, policy makers, insurers and those that advise them.
