No we are not, we will test an employee if they are concerned through employee health, or have been exposed we offer it, but not doing random testing.

Then if they were positive how many of their coworkers would you have to quarantine?

Do you have enough staffing for this?

Hi all,

Is anyone doing covid testing for employees as a general or random surveillance?  Not for symptoms or exposures but more due to surveillance and employee concerns?

We are not doing that here but are getting questions about it.

Many thanks,

Lisa
