Revisions made through employee health and lives in employee health procedure manual but revisions approved through Infection Prevention Committee and triennial
review there as well.
Previously lived in Infection Prevention manual but their scope so broad at our institution that employee health was more in tune to updating as needed so
it was moved a number of years ago.

Subject: [MCOH-EH] work restrictions policy associated with infectious disease exposures/infections
Colleagues:
In your respective organizations, who "owns" the policy with respect to work restrictions for healthcare workers associated with communicable/infectious disease exposures or infections. While I recognize that employee health, on a case by case basis, may have
to be the one to assign restrictions (including placing some personnel off work during infectious periods), is the policy itself "owned" (and thereby periodically reviewed/updated) by HR, Infection Control or Employee Health?
thanks
Pat
