COVID Policy

The Wealshire’s goal is to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in the workplace and keep everyone healthy and safe. All of us, managers, employees, and their representatives are responsible for supporting, complying with, and providing recommendations to further improve this COVID-19 plan.

The COVID-19 Manager/Supervisor/Lead has the authority and responsibility of implementing this COVID-19 Plan. They answer questions about the policy and update it as needed to comply with changing regulations.

Employee COVID-19 Training

Our employee trainer provides effective employee training and instruction that includes:
• COVID-19 signs and symptoms,
• How employees can protect themselves from COVID-19,
• What to do if sick,
• What to do if exposed to COVID-19, and
• Employer policies and procedures related to COVID-19.

Employee Masking

The Wealshire Center of Excellence will provide and ensure employees wear the appropriate type of facemask or face coverings. Masks help prevent the spread of COVID-19. You need to wash cloth masks daily. Discard disposable masks daily or more often as needed or if they are dirty.

Employees may not ask customers about their disabilities or about private medical information.

Our business will accommodate anyone who cannot wear a face covering due to approved exemptions, within reason. Employees will ask visitors unable to wear a face covering to maintain 6-feet of social distancing.

Workplace Cleaning

Regular cleaning of our workplace helps prevent the spread of COVID-19 and other diseases. Extra cleaning will be conducted should an employee report they have suspected or confirmed COVID-19.

Handwashing

Washing hands can keep you healthy and prevent the spread of COVID-19 from one person to the next. Germs can spread from other people or surfaces when you:

• Touch your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
• Prepare or eat food and drinks with unwashed hands.
• Touch a dirty surface or objects.
• Blow your nose, cough, or sneeze into your hands and then touch other people’s hands or common objects.

Employees Sick with COVID-19

Employees sick with COVID-19 may not enter the workplace. Employees who become sick while at work must leave the workplace. Employees should contact the HR department if they become sick with COVID-19.

Cleaning will be conducted of the area the sick employee was in within 24 hours (if it becomes known within that timeframe).
