Months after the COVID-19 pandemic forced employers to close their workplace and send their employees home, employers are now struggling with bringing those employees back – an arduous task which is not as simple as unlocking the doors or turning on the lights. Preventing the spread of COVID-19 in the workplace is paramount for employers as some parts of the country confront record numbers of COVID-19 cases, while others brace for a potential second wave.
In determining when, whether and how to bring employees back to the workplace, employers must make sense of a labyrinth of government regulations, adjust the physical layout of their workplace, prepare a host of new policies and procedures and train supervisors and employees. While each employer’s plan to return employees to the workplace will be unique, White and Williams has prepared a helpful "Checklist For Returning Employees to the Workplace." This checklist provides an overview of some of the many potential procedures that employers may need to consider in ensuring employees return to a safe work environment.
