Here is a message from Oregon OSHA on rescinding the COVID-19 rules for workplaces.
In line with updated public health guidance from the Oregon Health Authority (OHA), Oregon OSHA rescinded its COVID-19 requirements for all workplaces and employer-provided housing, beginning April 3, 2023.
Oregon OSHA had already removed many of the COVID requirements – including indoor use of facial coverings – for general workplaces and employer-provided housing while keeping such measures in place for health care settings. The division finalized those rule changes in late September 2022 following updates to public health guidance and stakeholder input.
Oregon OSHA’s current move to fully rescind its COVID-19 requirements – including for health care settings – further aligns the division with OHA’s updated guidance and stakeholder feedback.
