CAL-OSHA Votes to Relax Mask-Wearing Rules for Vaccinated Employees and to Change Workplace Safety Rules and Requirements
On June 3, 2021, the California Occupational Safety and Health Standards Board (Cal-OSHA) voted to relax workplace safety rules for employees who are vaccinated against COVID-19. The rules are still subject to review by the state Office of Administrative Law. However, assuming the Office of Administrative Law approves the rules, the new rules will go into effect on June 15, 2021.
Under the new rules, vaccinated employees are not required to wear masks if every employee in a room in the workplace is fully vaccinated and does not have COVID-19 symptoms. More>>
