COVID-19 Employer Information for Office Buildings

June 1, 2020 By Jefferson Chamber Staff

Workers in office buildings may be at risk for exposure to the virus that causes COVID-19. Office building employers, building owners and managers, and building operations specialists can take steps to create a safe and healthy workplace and protect workers and clients.

Last week, the CDC issued new recommendations for office spaces:

  • Inspect ventilation systems to ensure they operate properly
  • Increase circulation of outdoor air as much as possible
  • Check for hazards associated with prolonged facility shutdown
  • Conduct a thorough hazard assessment of the workplace to identify potential workplace hazards that could increase risks for COVID-19 transmission.
  • Develop hazard controls using the hierarchy of controls to reduce transmission among workers.

  • CDC’s COVID-19 General Business FAQs 
  • CDC’s FREE, simple posters available to download and print, some of which are translated into different languages.
  • NIOSH COVID-19 Workplace Safety and Health Topic
