Advice for supervisors if an employee reports symptoms
Estimated reading time:1 min
Employees with symptoms should not come to work until they have talked with a CSU Public Health official.
Employees should report their symptoms to the university via the COVID Reporter.
It is possible for individuals to experience symptoms of COVID-19 and not have COVID-19. Symptoms may be due to other health conditions, such as an infection or the common flu or cold.
The COVID Reporter does not diagnose an individual with COVID-19 and is merely a tool for the university.
Please maintain employee’s medical privacy by not sharing beyond a need-to-know basis that this employee has reported symptoms, and do not assume that an employee who report symptoms through the symptom checker has COVID-19.
Employees are not obligated to inform their supervisors if they have COVID, if they are experiencing symptoms, or if they have been vaccinated.
Custodial crews are routinely cleaning and disinfecting surfaces.
Employees within individual units should be frequently disinfecting shared spaces and personal work spaces.
