We have prepared the following FAQ to guide California employers with respect to their workplace policies and their response to the orders and laws that have been passed at the federal, state and local level to contend with the COVID-19 pandemic. The following is a summary of the commonly asked questions, both with respect to businesses in the “critical” sectors (as identified by Governor Newsom’s March 19, 2020 Stay-In-Place Executive Order) who have employees at work, and those businesses not in critical sectors that, at this time, cannot require an employee’s physical presence at work. The impact of this pandemic continues to change at a rapid pace. Accordingly, all the information below is subject to change and employers should consult with legal counsel before implementing new policies.
