Speaking of infectious diseases, the majority of the remaining rules of Cal/Osha for employers in relation to the protection of COVID-19 ran at the beginning of this week. In these rules, employers had to ban employees with Covid-19 to temporarily return to work. Note other employees if an employee has been tested positively. And have tests for employees who came into contact with exposed colleagues.
The end of these regulations has followed almost two years since the state has ended its three -year emergency contract, which made it possible Governor Gavin Newsom to spend comprehensive, sometimes controversial mandates. These guidelines tried to slow down the spread of a virus that killed more than 100,000 Californians.
However, one rule remains until next year: employers must follow Covid 19 cases, including the name of the employee, where they have worked, and have to follow the date of their positive test and for two years.
