Cal/OSHA’s COVID-19 Emergency Temporary Standard Approved and Immediately Effective
November 30, 2020

Earlier today, we shared an update about Cal/OSHA’s fast-moving rulemaking for an emergency COVID-19 prevention rule, along with a detailed summary of how we got here, as well as an outline of what the California rule will require.
We wanted to give you an update as soon as we heard, and we just heard… OAL has officially approved Cal/OSHA’s emergency COVID-19 prevention regulation. 

(UPDATE – Late on the day on December 1st, Cal/OSHA did issue FAQ guidance about the emergency rule. Here is a link to that guidanceThere are some very helpful nuggets in here, including clarity around limitations to how you count cases for an outbreak and what subset of employees may be covered by the testing and notification requirements. We anticipate more guidance from Cal/OSHA as time passes.)
