OSHA Updates-Non-Healthcare Employer Guidance on COVID-19

8/22/2021

0 Comments

 
On August 13, 2021, The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) updated its COVID-19 guidance for non-healthcare employers, suggesting that employers may want to “consider” adopting a policy requiring employees to receive the COVID-19 vaccination or submit to regular COVID-19 testing.
​
OSHA’s guidance includes the following recommendations for employers;
  • Request all employees, including fully vaccinated people, wear a face covering, as appropriate, in public, indoor settings in areas of substantial or high transmission of COVID-19
  • Suggest or require all customers, visitors, or guests wear face coverings in public, indoor settings in areas of substantial or high transmission of COVID-19;
  • Adopt policies that require employees to get vaccinated or undergo regular COVID-19 testing — in addition to mask wearing and physical distancing — if they remain unvaccinated; and
  • Require fully vaccinated employees who have a known exposure to someone with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 be tested three days to five days after exposure and wear a mask in public indoor settings for 14 days or until they receive a negative test result.
What Does This Mean for Employers?
Considering OSHA’s new guidance, employers should review their policies and procedures regarding any potential COVID-19 exposure to employees and develop an infectious disease plan.
