The nature of the coronavirus-related disputes vary, from allegations of wrongful death as a result of unsafe working conditions to wrongful termination for trying follow various state governors' orders to accusations that employers are using Covid-19 as a pretext for terminating employees for discriminatory reasons. The specter of Covid-related workplace claims has caught the attention of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky), who introduced a controversial piece of legislation that would add a layer of protection to employers against coronavirus-related workplace suits. Pro-business groups have sounded alarms about an "epidemic of lawsuits"; worker advocacy groups say the suits are often the best way to demand accountability.
