The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) advises that critical infrastructure workers may be permitted to continue work following potential exposure to COVID-19, provided they remain asymptomatic and additional precautions are implemented to protect them and the community. (A potential exposure is a household member or any close contact within 6 feet of an individual with confirmed or suspected COVID-19. The timeframe for contact includes the 48 hours before the individual became symptomatic).
The employer should:
-
Require employees to perform a daily symptom assessment, including taking temperature with thermometer and monitoring for fever, coughing, and trouble breathing
-
Increase cleaning and disinfecting of workspaces, offices, bathrooms, common areas, and shared electronic equipment.
-
Send the employee home immediately if symptoms develop during the workday.
-
Clean and disinfect surfaces in the employee’s workspace and shutdown the shop/floor for deep sanitation if possible.
-
Contact the local health district to report the suspected case and exposures.
-
Work with facility maintenance staff to increase air exchanges.
-
Consider pilot testing the use of face masks to ensure they do not interfere with work assignments.
The employee should:
-
If there is no temperature or symptoms, continue to self-monitor.
-
Wear a face covering while in the workplace, unless an exception exists. Employers can issue facemasks or can approve employees’ supplied cloth face coverings.
