Return to Work Assistant

As a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, many states have implemented shelter-in-place orders, restricting workers from performing some or all of their typical job functions. As states begin to allow businesses to reopen their physical locations, employers face the responsibility of establishing a safe and hygienic work environment. Use the Return to Work Assistant to determine the status of your state's current reopening plans and other helpful information concerning health and safety measures.

If you have legal questions related to COVID-19, ask a lawyer or find more resources in our Coronavirus Legal Center.

Use the Return to Work Assistant document if:

• You are an employer seeking to return employees to the workforce
• You want to know about the current status of your state's reopening plans
• You would like more information about COVID-19 safety procedures
• You or your employees are currently working from home or furloughed

The Return to Work Assistant can help employers and employees know what to consider when making the decision to reopen for business or go back to work. In addition to providing detailed information about COVID-19 protective measures in the workplace, the Return to Work Assistant asks a few simple questions to determine which paid leave options you may qualify for, if needed.
