Protect Your Employees and Your Business
Effective January 1, 2021, California Assembly Bill 685 mandates that all employers meet new workplace safety requirements—including notifying all employees within 24 hours if they are exposed to COVID-19 at a worksite. We’ll help you communicate effectively about workplace incidents, comply with state law, and avoid costly penalties.
Notify Employees
Alert Impacted Workers
Quickly identify at-risk employees and contractors after a confirmed COVID-19 case at a worksite. Use employee groups and multi-channel notifications to ensure messages reach the right people quickly in compliance with new Cal/OSHA and HIPAA requirements.
Communicate Benefits
Share Safety and Benefits Information
Ensure employees are aware of COVID-19-related benefits in compliance with AB 685 regulations. Share relevant resources via communication templates and solicit immediate feedback via two-way messaging and surveys.
Reopen Safely
Reiterate Reopening Plans
Easily communicate workplace disinfection and safety plans and provide updates as plans are executed—as AB 685 requires. Keep stakeholders informed about cleaning protocols and reopening plans with dedicated event pages. Reach employees quickly if plans change due to COVID-19 illnesses or a local outbreak.
