The Biden Administration has ordered the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and a subagency to determine by March 15 if there is a need for emergency temporary standards to protect workers from on-the-job COVID-19 infections. If Labor determines that such an ETS is necessary, a future ETS could require employers to follow a specific set of rules and regulations aimed at protecting the health and safety of workers. The Executive Order on Protecting Worker Health and Safety also directs the Department of Labor to issue updated guidance to employers on workplace safety during the COVID-19 pandemic.
