Agricultural Industry
Today’s update builds on proclamation 20-57.1 concerning the health of agricultural workers, and on the relief funds announced on August 10.
The updates specify what types of licensed health professional can monitor workers during isolation, and clarify that employer-provided monitoring of symptoms is not synonymous with healthcare covered by workers’ compensation.
