If employees have been exposed to someone with COVID-19, the following steps must be taken:

1 . Employees should mask as soon as they find out they were exposed. They should continue masking for 10 days.
2 . If an employee develops symptoms, they should isolate immediately and get tested.
3 . An employee should test on day 6 after exposure, even if they do not develop symptoms.

If employees have received positive COVID-19 test results and have become ill due to the virus but did not require hospitalization, the following steps must be taken:

1 . Employees should contact Human Resources and their supervisor.
2 . Employees will be encouraged to contact a healthcare provider.

To prevent the spread of COVID-19, employees can return to campus after meeting the following criteria:

2 . If asymptomatic but tested positive, employees may return to campus 5 days after the test sample was collected.
3 . If employees have no fever (temperature less than 100.4) for at least 24 hours without using fever-reducing medicines like aspirin, acetaminophen, or ibuprofen.
4 . If employees have improved respiratory conditions.
5 . If employees exhibit no other symptoms of COVID-19.
6 . After day five, an employee can return if they wear a mask or other covering for their nose and mouth through to day 10.
