​Hello all,

The question came up recently at  a 7:45 meeting what are the guidelines for shift workers who have a possible COVID exposure but are not experiencing symptoms.
In particular, we wanted guidance for weekends when occupational medicine isn’t available.

The following guidance has come from Steve Hoey.


NOTE:   Exposure is defined as being within 6 feet for at least 15 minutes to someone who is COVID positive.


If you have been exposed to a positive COVID-19 case, please follow the guidance below:



  *   If you are fully vaccinated:
     *   Notify Occupational Medicine on Monday.  You do not need to quarantine or be restricted from site after exposure (unless a household contact).
     *   As a precaution, please wear a mask if you have to work around others.
     *   If you develop symptoms, please stay home and inform Occupational Medicine .
     *   If you are a household contact, please stay home and inform Occupational Medicine.



  *   If you are not fully vaccinated/undisclosed:
     *   Notify Occupational Medicine on Monday.  Stay home and do not report to work.  You will be restricted from site for seven days from the date of exposure.
     *   If you develop symptoms, please notify Occupational Medicine.
     *
     *
     *
     *   Cheers,
     *              Mark
