Why Testing is an important tool
Testing Regimen
You and your HR team will want to establish a baseline of employees’ COVID-19 risk, exposure, and disease burden. An initial onsite COVID-19 test session for your worksite is recommended, and then periodic testing thereafter. You might want to consider testing 25% of the team weekly; therefore, you can test your entire team monthly without major disruptions to work output.

Return to work safely

Regimen
Other activities such as daily temperature checks at the beginning of each shift will help you identify symptomatic employees quickly. If an employee tests positive for a COVID-19 test or shows a fever during daily temperature checks, they should be referred to their primary care physician for further evaluation, testing, treatment, quarantine, and/or clearance.

It is important to keep the workplace safe
According to the CDC it is reasonable to expect ~85% of your employees to test negative, based on current COVID-19 infection rate data.
Example
Getting your team back to work
To get back to work, you need a plan you can execute to keep your returning employees as safe as possible. In this example, you can see a plan for reopening with the aim of detected and quarantining team members that test positive for COVID-19 to protect the remaining employees from exposure. After the initial testing day, this example also shows how the PCR positive employees can be retested and cleared to join their peers. This example is based on sample infection rate data from the Center for Disease Control.
