In follow up to our last post regarding CDC’s mask guidance, note that today OSHA updated its website to state the following:

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has issued new guidance relating to recommended precautions for people who are fully vaccinated, which is applicable to activities outside of healthcare and a few other environments. OSHA is reviewing the recent CDC guidance and will update our materials on this website accordingly. Until those updates are complete, please refer to the CDC guidance for information on measures appropriate to protect fully vaccinated workers.

For additional detail, visit OSHA’s site at:  https://www.osha.gov/coronavirus/safework

We will keep you apprised of new guidance by OSHA.  If you have questions, contact any of our COVID-19 Focus Team members.
