Subject: COVID exposures and Shift Workers




Dear Hall leaders,



The question came up recently at  a7:45 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.     Steven Hoey provided the attached guidance provided below and attached as a ppt slide.        Please feel free to pass this information along to your run coordinators and shift workers.





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.





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



Best Wishes,

Douglas
