Safely Returning to Workplaces: A Conversation with the Cleveland Clinic

On May 15, 2020, we had the privilege of hosting an in-depth conversation with Dr. James Merlino and Dr. Steven Gordon, both leaders at the Cleveland Clinic, who generously shared their guidance and insights on how organizations can safely navigate the return to workplaces in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

The session was designed to cut through the clutter and confusion on this topic by drawing upon the expertise of world-leading experts in the field.  

During the session, Dr. Merlino and Dr. Gordon provided practical guidance on a range of workplace-return topics, including:  

• Addressing employee fear and anxiety
• Preparing the physical workplace and preventing spread of the virus
• Protocols for mask usage
• The best approaches to identifying and addressing COVID-19 symptoms
• Establishing guidelines for quarantine, isolation, and safe returns
• Considerations for testing – both for the virus itself and for antibodies
