As shelter-in-place orders are being lifted, businesses are considering how and when to re-open workplaces that will look very different than they did before the COVID-19 pandemic. New employee safety considerations must be considered, and employers must be mindful of a range of evolving federal, state, and local guidance that addresses protective measures that should be taken as employees return to work. 

Below are some of the questions raised that a "return to work" business model and your applications software will need to address:

What processes will need to be in place to address the concerns of employees who don’t feel safe returning to the office, or who may have a medical or family situation that prevents them from doing so?

Should return-to-work teams be setup and appointed to communicate and monitor particular steps that can be taken in the workplace including contact tracing, dealing with customers, clients, or outside service providers?

How do you blend the operational needs of your business with return-to-work plans – including employee roles?

What screening and distancing steps do you take to lessen the risk to employees including self-certifications and/or questionnaires?

Who should receive information? How will it be processed?Where will it be maintained? When can it be shared? What about sensitive data?
