Needs some covid guidance for employers in LA
Posted on 5/11/20 at 7:14 am

Got a call this morning from a friend saying that one of his employee tested positive for covid and three others tested negative.
Looking through all the literature appears to be mind-numbing
Does Louisiana provide a guidance tool on how to work with employees and the workplace in these situations? Does it go back to OSHA or the CDC?
I am sure this has already been asked here, and I would appreciate a point in that direction (and not to the first page of the infinity-page covid thread)
Thanks for the time.

Send the people who test positive home. You could demand that everyone get tested, but you would have to close until all the results are back. Or you can take it day by day and send only the people who are sick home. As for “official” guidelines, I don’t know.

If you execute the infected, burn the bodies, and bury them 10' deep at least 100 yards away from any building or parking lot then the facilities are safe for the non infected. Be sure to weld the doors closed once the employees are inside.

What sort of guidance are you looking for?
For returning to work he has a few options, but there are basically two main options: 1 - Employee can return with clearance from doctor 2 - Employee can return after a certain number of hours "symptom free". (Usually 72 hours)

There are too many factors involved to really get a good answer on the internet. There are OSHA and workers comp issues, among others. It depends on how many employees the employer has and the nature of the employer's business. It also depends on what health protocols the employer had in place before the exposure.
For example, most of the employers that I represent segregated their employees in the smaller group so that any exposure would be limited. The employees in the small groups would have no direct interaction with employees of other groups.

Wouldn’t all this fall under the CARES act? I think that gives employers and employees directions on how to handle this situation.
