Kaplan Quoted in Bloomberg Law Discussing OSHA’s New Ruling on Health Care Employees

Partner Daniel Kaplan was quoted in a Bloomberg Law article titled, “OSHA Rule Requires Health Employers to Track Worker Virus Data,” discussing the new emergency rule for health care employers to track infections among their workers.

Kaplan told Bloomberg Law, “Employers that fail to record or report cases could be cited by OSHA.” He went on to say that he expects that any employer subject to the standard would be asked to provide a copy of the Covid-19 log as part of an OSHA inspection. “While OSHA requires many employers to provide an annual summary of their Form 300 logs, there’s no such mandate for the Covid-19 log,” he added.
