COVID-19 Protocols for Students and Employees

HCTC COVID Protocols March 1, 2024

Any student or employee who is positive with COVID and running a fever is restricted from campus until they have gone at least 24 hours fever-free and symptoms are improving regardless of a positive test. The student or employee must wear a mask when they return to campus for 5 days from the onset of COVID.

Faculty should continue to restrict students with COVID and a fever from class until the student reports that they have gone 24 hours without a fever. They are encouraged to work with the student to provide make up instructional options (including remote instruction if available) during the student?s restriction.

Supervisors should continue to place employees with COVID and a fever on remote work until the employee reports that they have gone 24 hours without a fever. They are instructed to provide the employee with remote work options (if available) during the employee?s restriction. Employees may use available temporary disability leave if they are too ill to work.
