March 4, 2021 Personnel Narrative
Item 4: The CDC and State of Wisconsin have updated their guidance for COVID19 related
quarantine situations. A revised guidance memo was distributed to county employees and
board supervisors in mid-February and is included in the meeting packet. The Personnel
Committee may take formal action to validate this policy or may recommend
modifications/clarifications. Following are Sections 10 and 11, which contain the most
significant modifications included in the policy memo:
QUARANTINE PERIOD REDUCTION
If an employee has had exposure to someone that has symptoms of, or someone that has a
confirmed case of COVID19, the quarantine period is 14 days from the date of exposure,
except:
• Quarantine can end after Day 10 without testing and if no symptoms have been reported
during daily monitoring. Daily symptom monitoring with the Health Department must be in
place for 14 days.
• Quarantine can end after Day 7 after receiving a negative test result (test must occur on day
6 or later). Daily symptom monitoring with the Health Department must be in place for 14
days.
People who have been in close contact with someone who has COVID-19 are not required to
quarantine if they have been fully vaccinated against the disease within the last 90 days and
show no symptoms.
VACCINATION
Anyone interested in being vaccinated should pre-register on the Bayfield County web site.
Once pre-registered, the Health Department will contact you when you are eligible to receive
the vaccine.
Once you are vaccinated, it does not mean that you can stop wearing masks or social
distancing. All precautions must still be followed.
• If you are vaccinated against COVID-19, you may still be exposed to the virus that causes
COVID-19. After exposure, people can be infected with or “carry” the virus that causes
COVID-19 but not feel sick or have any symptoms. Experts call this “asymptomatic
infection.”
Item 5. Periodically, the Personnel Committee reviews policies to determine if modifications
should be made. Sections 4.1 and 4.2 of the Bayfield County Personnel Policies & Procedures
Manual outline the Standards of Employee Conduct, Ethics, Fraud, and Performance Evaluation
policies applicable to county employees. These are the policies that dictate what is expected of
an employee and are most often the policies that are referenced when there is a performance
concern. At this meeting we will begin a review of these policies and discuss potential
clarifications or modifications. A copy of the existing policies are included with the meeting
packet.
Item 6. HR Report and Personnel Financial Reports are both included in the meeting packet.

RE: Bayfield County COVID-19 Personnel Guidance and Scenarios
We want to thank all employees for your commitment to the safety and well-being of our co-
workers, family and community. Overall, employees have been very supportive of COVID
protocols in place in addition to being conscientious about personal/off-work-time activities.
As our community members begin to get vaccinated please continue to take the basic
precautions of wearing masks, social distancing and hand washing.
The purpose of this memo is to outline ongoing and revised policy related to COVID-19. Items
10 and 11 reflect the most significant policy modifications.
1) County Services will remain available to the public during normal business hours of 8am-4pm,
Monday through Friday. Department Heads are required to ensure that offices are open and staffed.
2) Departments must have ample on-site staff and be available for walk-in service during normal
business hours. The number of staff authorized to telecommute will vary depending upon
department size, needs of the department and current staffing situations
a. Telecommuting dates will be determined on a departmental basis and will vary based upon
need.
b. Departments/sections are not required to have any staff telecommute. Telecommuting is
being offered as a mechanism to ensure continued operations in the event of an outbreak
and to provide flexibility for and safety for staff.
c. Telecommuting duration will vary depending upon needs of the department and individual
circumstances.
d. Staff members that telecommute must complete a telecommuting agreement and meet the
agreement terms. Employees must be able to provide sufficient internet connectivity for
telecommuting.
e. Telecommuting may be discontinued at any time, depending upon needs of the department.
For example, if an individual working on-site is unable to work, a telecommuting employee
may be required to report for on-site work. Employees that are telecommuting must have
contingencies in place (such as for child-care) if they are required to return to on-site work.
3/5/2021

3) Staff that work a portion or most of their time away from the courthouse, ie: deputies, foresters,
etc. are urged to minimize contact with in-office staff.
4) While telecommuting, staff are discouraged from entering county facilities (this defeats the purpose
of telecommuting to reduce risk of exposure).
5) SCHOOL-YEAR IMPLICATIONS/ACCOMMODATIONS: Each family situation is unique.
Bayfield County realizes the anxiety caused as a result of the pandemic and the difficult
choices that many staff are facing with regard to childcare and education. It is the county’s
intent to work with staff to identify workable solutions to ensure a healthy work-life
balance.
a. Telecommuting may be allowed while providing child supervision as long as the
employee can continue to be productive and have a professional work environment.
This would be most conducive in situations with older, more self-sufficient children
and may not be applicable where small children need constant supervision.
b. Supervisors will be responsible for monitoring productivity to ensure that work is
completed in a timely and consistent manner.
c. Continued flexibility with work hours is encouraged where possible. This may include
early morning, evening, or weekend work if agreeable with the department and the
work is able to be completed at that time while not incurring overtime. Flexible work
schedules must be balanced with the needs of all employees in the department, not
placing unrealistic additional burdens on staff that remain working on-site.
d. A combination of telecommuting and on-site work may be accommodated where
children have a split schedule with on-site schooling and virtual schooling.
e. Employees may request temporary reductions in work schedules to accommodate
childcare/schooling demands. Any reduction in hours must be discussed with the
Department Head and Human Resources to determine levels and if there would be
any impact on benefits.
6) PROTOCOL IF AN EMPLOYEE IS SICK:
a. If an employee exhibits symptoms of illness, they should stay home or may be
directed to go home if working on-site. Symptoms include:
i. Fever of 100.4 or higher or chills
ii. Persistent Dry Cough
iii. Shortness of Breath or Difficulty Breathing
iv. Fatigue
v. Muscle or Body Aches
vi. Headache
vii. New loss of taste or smell
viii. Sore throat
ix. Congestion or runny nose
x. Nausea or vomiting
xi. Diarrhea
b. Employee should stay home and contact a medical provider or teledoc at (1-800-
Teladoc.) or Teamster call number.
3/5/2021

c. Notify the Human Resources Office of the illness.
d. CDC recommends that the employee not return to work until ALL of the following
conditions are met:
i. 10 days from the onset of the symptoms
ii. 24 hours after the fever ends (without the use of a fever reducer such as
Tylenol)
iii. Symptoms have improved.
7) If an employee’s HOUSEHOLD MEMBER has symptoms of COVID, the CDC recommends that
the employee self-quarantine for a period of 14 days AFTER the household member no
longer has symptoms. See Item 10 below for specifics related to opportunities for reduced
quarantine requirements.
8) PREVENTIVE PROTOCOLS RELATED TO TRAVEL/ACTIVITIES:
Employees that are travelling or participating in activities that result in increased risk of
exposure to COVID-19 are asked to notify their Supervisor and participate in a return-to-
work screening with Human Resources before working in a county facility. The intent of
the screening is to reduce the chance of COVID-19 exposure within the workplace.
a. As employees travel, attend large group activities, or have guests from out of the area, they
are asked to follow safety precautions identified by the CDC. Employees travelling or that
take part in activities that have higher risk for exposure should discuss this with their
supervisor and contact HR for guidance.
b. If an employee is already telecommuting and will not return to county facilities for 10 days
following the travel or activity, there is no need to contact Human Resources for a
screening.
c. Employees that participate in travel or group activities may be required to quarantine,
either on-site, or through telecommuting, for a period of 10 calendar days. These options
are provided to ensure that employees can continue to conduct their lives but provide
additional precautions in the event that an exposure did occur while participating in those
activities.
d. Common scenarios that may result in a recommendation to quarantine or telecommute:
i. Travel other than by personal automobile. IE. air travel, bus, train, cruise. Travel by
personal auto may also result in isolation/telecommuting depending upon the
activities/precautions taken during the travel.
ii. Attending a large group event. Ie..wedding, shower, rally, concert, reunion etc..
iii. Staying in a hotel/motel/B&B.
iv. Staying with friends/family may or may not result in isolation/telecommuting
depending upon the accommodations, activities and precautions taken.
v. Having guests in your home may or may not result in isolation/telecommuting
depending upon where the guest is from, how they got here, whether they self-
quarantined before arriving, the accommodations, activities and precautions taken.
vi. This list is not all-inclusive. Employees are encouraged to contact Human Resources
for clarification.
3/5/2021

e. Employees should contact Human Resources as far in advance of travel/activities as
possible. This allows the employee, department, and IT to plan if isolation or telecommuting
is recommended.
f. Employees do not need to wait until the day before they return to work to complete the
screening. It may be completed at any time prior to returning to on-site work (even before
the activity or trip occurs).
9) PAY OPTIONS FOR QUARANTINE WHEN UNABLE TO TELECOMMUTE:
If an employee is quarantined (either by a medical provider or Human Resources) or
ordered to isolate (by a medical provider), and is unable to telecommute, they may choose
from the following options for payroll purposes:
i. May use available vacation or comp time.
ii. May use available sick leave:
1. If the employee has been a close contact of an active COVID case
2. The employee is experiencing symptoms consistent with COVID19
and is awaiting test results
3. The employee is diagnosed with COVID19
4. The employee is caring for an immediate family member that is
quarantined/isolated because of COVID19.
iii. May use unpaid leave in lieu of paid leave:
1. If the employee has been a close contact of an active COVID case
2. The employee is experiencing symptoms consistent with COVID19
and is awaiting test results
3. The employee is diagnosed with COVID19
4. The employee is caring for an immediate family member that is
quarantined/isolated because of COVID19
5. The employee is providing oversight of their dependent child that is
schooling virtually.
Use of unpaid leave for these purposes will not impact sick or vacation
benefit allocations (no pro-ration).
iv. Up to 20 days of combined sick and/or unpaid leave may be used for the
COVID-related purposes stated above. Following use of those 20 days, all
eligible paid leave must be exhausted before additional unpaid leave will be
considered.
Note: If an employee is unable to telecommute during the quarantine
period following travel or participation in events or activities, they are not
eligible to use sick leave (unless during first year of employment). Unpaid
leave will only be approved if all other eligible paid leave time has been
exhausted.
v. Employees unable to telecommute as a result of quarantine or isolation must
complete an Employee Request Form to verify eligibility for the leave and for
documentation of the type of leave to be used. The form can be found on
3/5/2021
5
the county’s employee COVID Information page on the county web site, or by
contacting Human Resources.
10) QUARANTINE PERIOD REDUCTION
If an employee has had exposure to someone that has symptoms of, or someone that has a
confirmed case of COVID19, the quarantine period is 14 days from the date of exposure,
except:
• Quarantine can end after Day 10 without testing and if no symptoms have been reported
during daily monitoring. Daily symptom monitoring with the Health Department must be in
place for 14 days.
• Quarantine can end after Day 7 after receiving a negative test result (test must occur on day
6 or later). Daily symptom monitoring with the Health Department must be in place for 14
days.
People who have been in close contact with someone who has COVID-19 are not required to
quarantine if they have been fully vaccinated against the disease within the last 90 days and
show no symptoms.
