COVID-19 brought about tremendous amounts of change for organizations and their employees – and that change continues today. Many states currently have legislation requiring employers to provide some sort of training to their employees.

Some organizations are beginning to return to the worksite. Others are continuing to support a remote workforce. And still others are managing a combination of these two approaches. The key for all of these organizations? Ensure business is conducted safely and employees remain healthy.

This COVID-19 course provides a brief overview of COVID-19, prevention strategies and the changes it has created in the workplace. It offers modules dedicated to both returning to work safely and best practices for remote employees, allowing organizations to configure a course that meets their unique needs. A manager module is also available to educate managers about their roles and responsibilities.

While COVID-19 and its impact on the workplace continues to change, solid communication and training around related safety policies and expectations is critical for a safe and healthy work environment.
