causes COVID-19.” If a case does need to be recorded, then your employer needs to fill out Form 300. If the employee asks that their name be hidden on the log, then the employer needs to comply under 29 CFR 1904.29(b)(7)(vi). Additionally, if your workplace is a high-risk environment, then your employer is required to supply N95 respirators or other respirators that match the same standards (and are approved by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health). If your employer cannot supply these, then OSHA has permitted employees to reuse N95 respirators or wear expired respirators. However, your employer should exhaust all other options — such as providing elastomeric or air- purifying respirators — first before telling you to reuse or wear old respirators.

This is just a snippet of the many amendments OSHA has made in regards to the pandemic, and if you need assistance deciphering the industry jargon, then please reach out to us.
