Oklahoma County Reopening Guidelines
Covid-19/Coronavirus, 2019-2020
Oklahoma County Emergency Response Committee
Oklahoma County government remains committed to the safety and welfare of our employees and customers. Throughout the Covid-19/Coronavirus situation, substantial efforts have been employed to limit and hopefully eliminate additional risks associated with the contracting of, or potential spread of Covid-19 and other health-related factors in the workplace. Health department guidance has been implemented, including from the Oklahoma City-County Health Department (OCCHD), the Oklahoma State Department of Health (OSDH), and the Federal Center for Disease Control and Infection (CDC).
This guidance document is intended to provide information to all employees, offices, and work groups in regard to the “reopening” of Oklahoma County facilities to the general public. Phased reopening measures reflect coordination with surrounding jurisdictions, the State of Oklahoma, and Federal guidance.
County Preventative/Protective Measures
Employee Participation
Individual responsibility is of the utmost importance in protecting ourselves and our coworkers and customers. Reopening does not negate, eliminate, or reduce the need for proper preventative measures, with emphasis at the individual employee and customer level.
It is each employee’s responsibility to:
o Fever
o Cough
o Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
o Chills
o Repeated shaking with chills
o Muscle pain
o Headache
o Sore throat
o New loss of taste or smell
