To help employers who are reopening (or have reopened) their physical workplaces, Osler has developed "The Employer's COVID-19 Return to the Workplace Playbook." Our guide outlines key considerations for employers in building a rational and documented plan to ensure a smooth employee transition back to the office.
You should consider the following issues:
- Does your business have a mask policy as well as employee training on the proper use of masks?
- Have you refreshed your health and safety practices to address COVID-19?
- What are your workplace controls (screening, physical distancing, etc.) and are they enough?
- Do you need to adjust future contracts and policies to account for a possible second wave of COVID-19?
It is important to implement a robust set of protocols, policies and procedures that not only keep your employees safe, but satisfy your legal obligations. Read our Playbook to understand more.
