Does an employer have to say if a coworker has the virus?
Employers are generally not required to tell workers when someone in the
workplace has tested positive for the coronavirus. The U.S. Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention recommends that companies monitor employees
for symptoms and alert those who may have been in contact with an infected
person. Some states may order businesses to follow such guidance. Employers
have the right to take employees’ temperature and ask about symptoms or if
they have been exposed to or diagnosed with the virus. If an employee doesn’t
respond to those questions, they can be barred from the workplace. |
