Epidemic Orders & Related Regulatory Guidance

MIOSHA Emergency Rules

The new MIOSHA rules incorporate federal OSHA guidance for the healthcare industry. At this time, non-health care employers are no longer required to keep mask wearing, daily health screenings and distancing measures in place. Employers have the option to use their own judgment. MIOSHA urges employers to follow existing federal CDC and OSHA recommendations to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
