EE Notification to Company Regarding Bio Burden

Earlier this month I asked about policies regarding employee illnesses when working in a pharmaceutical clean room environment. I received three responses (thank you).

In the interest of providing you all with a basic summary, the input I received ranged from considering accommodation so there is no loss in pay, consulting the CDC home site, to finally a sample of an SOP that addresses this issue. Basically, it is up to the employer based on business necessity and cleanroom operations. We've decided (based on the chemical we work with in the pharma mfg) that there can be no symptoms of cold, coughing, sneezing, infection, or bleeding injuries. Employees will be re-assigned outside the mfg area and perform other work instead.
