Sample COVID-19 Mitigation Plan
Thank you, Union Snyder, for providing a sample plan.
Union Snyder used CDC, PA DOL and CAPLAW guidelines/guidance to create their migitation plan. They also posed specific questions to CAPLAW regarding workplace mask/face covering as it relates to vaccinated individuals. Sue Auman, Executive Director at Union-Snyder, shared the plan on April 30, 2021 and you can view it, along with other COVID-19 resources, on the CAAP website.
