Mask Requirement for Employees Working Indoors

 

On December 16, 2021, Gov. McKee signed Executive Order 21-116. Under the order, all office-based businesses plus other private and public employers with indoor operations must require masking of any person on-site, including employees. An exception may be made for any person who provides proof of vaccination. There are additional exceptions for those: under age two, whose health would be damaged by the wearing of a mask, and who are developmentally unable to comply. There are also exceptions for those who are working alone in an office or at a work site or while consuming drink or food.

The requirement became effective immediately upon signing and will expire on January 18, 2022, unless extended by a subsequent order. Employers should be aware of this order.
