Section 1: Assessment
Agricultural employers can use this checklist to create a COVID-19 assessment and control plan for applying specific preparation, prevention, and management measures. This checklist is based on guidance from the CDC and US DOL (https://bit.ly/covid-ag-cdc-dol). *Disclaimer*: Checklist is for reference only and does not guarantee compliance with state or local regulations.
Consider the characteristics of your region, worksite, space, and job tasks that may impact your assessment and control of COVID-19.
Monitor federal, state, and local public health communications about COVID-19.
1. Ensure workers have access to current information.
2. Check local public health information and the CDC COVID-19 website daily, or as needed depending on local conditions.
Designate a workplace coordinator responsible for COVID-19 assessment and control planning.
1. Ensure all workers know how to contact the coordinator.
2. Ensure coordinator communicates in workers’ preferred languages.
3. Ensure coordinator provides materials at the appropriate literacy level.
Provide workers with information about where to get COVID-19 testing.
Regularly conduct work site assessments to identify COVID-19 risks and prevention strategies.
