The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that 1 in 13 adults may have long COVID, and 80% of the adults with long COVID have some trouble carrying out daily activities.
Given these numbers, long COVID conditions are expected to have a profound impact on employees, employers, workforce absence vendors and insurers, and the healthcare system.
In October 2022, DMEC surveyed 242 organizations across a variety of industries about current long COVID caseloads, accommodation practices, and strategic planning for long COVID management. This report highlights the survey results.
