Stay in Compliance with California COVID-19 Guidance

As a California employer, you are responsible for ensuring you are maintaining compliance with Cal/OSHA COVID-19 Prevention Regulations. As we have witnessed a recent surge in COVID-19 cases over the summer months, it’s a good time to provide a refresher on respiratory virus safety, particularly COVID-19, for yourself and your employees. We can best protect our employees and our organizations by staying vigilant and informed.

The COVID-19 Testing and Isolation Guidelines were withdrawn by the CDPH in May 2024, however, this action had no bearing on the Cal/OSHA COVID-19 Prevention Non-Emergency Standards. 

The Cal/OSHA notice requirements will remain in effect until February 2025. It is still necessary for you to tell your employees and independent contractors who have had close contact as soon as possible and continue to provide them with COVID-19 testing at no cost. 

Continue to identify and address hazards to stop the spread of COVID-19 and other respiratory viruses in your workplace. In addition, a reminder should be given to your employees to keep up with the COVID-19 preventive measures listed in your IIPPs.

Ensure your employees are safe and your organization is protected by staying informed and remaining aware. For more information visit the Cal/OSHA COVID-19 webpage here, or connect with a member of our consulting team.
