COVID-19 Training Required for All Employees in New York

New York Mandates COVID-19 Training for All Employees Before or Upon Their Return to Workplace

On May 29, 2020, certain regions in New York State entered Phase 2 of Governor Cuomo’s Move New York Forward Plan to reopen most businesses in the state, except for New York City, which is expected to enter Phase 1 on June 8th.

New York State has issued industry-specific guidelines required for those businesses currently allowed to reopen, which directs employers to “train all personnel on the new protocols and frequently communicate safety guidelines.”  Many of the guidelines set forth specific content that must be covered.

Phase 1 businesses allowed to reopen include construction, manufacturing, and several other industries.  Phase 2 businesses allowed to reopen include office settings where business activities are the core function, essential in-store retail, and several other industries.

Clear Law Institute has created an interactive, self-paced online training that complies with the New York training requirement and similar requirements in other states, such as California, Connecticut, Illinois, Michigan, Vermont, and Washington, and with OSHA guidelines that apply nationwide. Clear Law Institute’s COVID-19 Safe Workplace training is fully narrated and includes numerous interactive animations, video demonstrations, and exercises.

Clear Law Institute, which provides online compliance training for more than 1,000 employers, handles rolling out the training to your employees, handling tech support issues, and tracking course completions.
