Rapid Test Results For Safe Working Environments
New OSHA Guidelines
OSHA guidelines require businesses with more than 100 employees to provide documentation that unvaccinated employees are tested weekly. RapidBio is offering powerful and convenient tools for Human Resources & Environmental Health and Safety officers to meet this requirement for both remote and onsite COVID-19 testing.
Unfortunately, with the new guidelines just testing at home is not enough. OSHA will not recognize at home self administered and self interpreted COVID-19 tests unless the testing is observed by the employer or an authorized proctor.
Please see: osha.gov/coronavirus/ets2/faqs item 6J for more information.
