********************************************************
As the COVID-19 pandemic unfolds, government officials at all levels are reevaluating their health and safety protocols and adjusting workplace guidance based on shifting case metrics. Jurisdictions across the country have progressed and regressed by implementing different measures, on different timetables – resulting in a patchwork that has proven particularly challenging for multistate employers. As vaccination rates have increased, jurisdictions implemented more robust reopening steps.
The chart below provides links to key orders and/or mitigation measures affecting the private sector issued at the statewide level. Employers should bear in mind that these materials typically offer detailed instructions, which often vary by industry. As a result, it is important to review each order along with any corresponding official guidance to get a complete picture of all requirements and how they may impact each employer’s operations. We will update this list periodically, as pertinent developments arise.
Employers might also wish to review our post summarizing statewide guidance on face coverings (also retired).
Note that this chart does not cover orders or guidance issued at the local level. Employers should consult with counsel for our additional resources on orders that may apply to their operations.
