FAQ

Employees should not return to work until they meet the criteria to discontinue home isolation and have consulted with a healthcare provider. Employers should not require a sick employee to provide a negative COVID-19 test result or healthcare provider's note to return to work.

In most cases, you do not need to shut down your facility. But do close off any areas used for prolonged periods of time by the sick person: Wait 24 hours before cleaning and disinfecting to minimize potential for other employees being exposed to respiratory droplets.

Anyone who has had close contact with someone with COVID-19 should stay home for 14 days after their last exposure to that person. The best way to protect yourself and others is to stay home for 14 days if you think you've been exposed to someone who has COVID-19.

Perform cleaning and disinfection after anyone suspected or confirmed to have COVID-19 has been in the workplace. Cleaning staff should clean and disinfect offices, bathrooms, common areas, and shared electronic equipment used by the ill person, focusing especially on frequently touched surfaces. If other workers do not have access to these areas or items, wait 24 hours (or as long as possible) before cleaning and disinfecting.

Anyone who has had close contact with someone with COVID-19 should stay home for 14 days after their last exposure to that person. The best way to protect yourself and others is to stay home for 14 days if you think you've been exposed to someone who has COVID-19.

Someone who was within 6 feet of an infected person for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period starting from 2 days before illness onset (or, for asymptomatic patients, 2 days prior to test specimen collection) until the time the patient is isolated.

Testing of contacts has large implications for laboratory as well as contact tracing resources. If resources permit, all close contacts should be tested for SARS-CoV-2. Where resources exist, testing should be performed as soon as symptoms develop for symptomatic contacts. Testing all close contacts regardless of symptoms may increase sensitivity of a surveillance system, but this approach requires high availability of testing personnel, supplies, PPE, and laboratory staff. If positive, the contact should begin isolating. If negative, contacts should continue to self-quarantine for a full 14 days after last exposure and follow all recommendations of jurisdictional public health authorities

Bringing exposed workers back should not be the first or most appropriate option to pursue in managing critical work tasks. Quarantine for 14 days is still the safest approach to limit the spread of COVID-19 and reduce the chance of an outbreak among the workforce.
