EAP and COVID-19: SAFER - Safe Actions for Employee Returns

Abstract

The below framework is suggested based on review of dozens of corporate and public health protocols, recommendations, and guidance resources (a full list of publicly-available material is provided at the end of this document). The framework represents a map of the key areas around which corporate and public policy leaders are taking action, as well as the operations types in play, and will be the basis from which SAFER will build its recommendations for a safe return to and continuation of work. This framework is open to modification based on the feedback of the SAFER Task Force, a consortium of Fortune 500 companies, leading safety organizations, and public health professionals and experts. A full list of Task Force members is included at the end of this document. A more detailed description and list of considerations related to each of these topic areas follows.
