Continue to use common sense to help keep everyone healthy and safe.
Frequent hand-washing and use of hand sanitizer
Wearing a face covering if desired
Staying home if sick or running a fever
It is the supervisors’ responsibility to ensure employees do not come to work sick
Students, employees and visitors should consult with a healthcare provider for guidance on such issues as vaccinations, treatments, and/or quarantine
If testing positive, students, employees and visitors may return to your normal activities when, for at least 24 hours, both are true: 1. Your symptoms are getting better overall, and 2. You have not had a fever (and are not using fever-reducing medication).

Employees will use available sick time to cover absences or contact HR should they need to request an extended leave under FMLA.
