based upon this action plan and taking into account all extenuating circumstances as each employee’s
case is unique.

Section I - Employees with COVID-19 symptoms

Employees are required to self-monitor for COVID-19 symptoms and should not come to work if they
have any of the following symptoms.

People with these symptoms may have COVID-19:

• Fever or chills
• Cough
• Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
• Fatigue
• Muscle or body aches
• Headache
• New loss of taste or smell
• Sore throat
• Congestion or runny nose
• Nausea or vomiting
• Diarrhea

Employees developing any of these systems should stay home and testing is recommended. NOTE: a
diagnostic respiratory specimen test (nasal swab) is best for the COVID-19 test. An employee only needs
to be tested once as additional tests are likely to stay positive for weeks or months well after the
employee is no longer contagious.
