Memorandum
Date: July 14, 2020
To: The Honorable Moke Simon, Chair, Lake County Board of Supervisors
From: Carol J. Huchingson, County Administrative Officer
Subject: Consideration of Update to Return to Work Protocol
Executive Summary: (include fiscal and staffing impact narrative):
As your Board recalls, when you first approved the COVID-19 Return to Work Protocol on May 19, 2020, you directed that it be reviewed every 30 days. Your first 30 day review, including your approval of revision to the protocol, occurred on June 16, 2020.
As you know, staff fully expected that the Protocol would be a living document and issues continue to arise leading to proposed revisions for the consideration of your Board.
At this time, we are recommending additions to the Protocol and a final draft version with the new language highlighted in yellow is attached for your consideration.
A summary of the recommended additions are as follows:
1. A table of contents has been inserted for ease of use.
2. A new section addressing situations in which an employee, or a member of an employee's household tests positive, has been added, instructing departments on best practices for supporting the affected employee as well as for protecting other employees who may have been exposed to the affected employee. In addition, guidance is added regarding the need to sanitize the workplace after this occurs.
