If someone has covid symptoms or has tested positive, they should follow government guidance and any policy their organisation has. There's currently no legally required length of time someone with covid should stay off work. An employer might decide it's not safe for someone to return to the workplace, for example, if an employee no longer has symptoms but is still testing positive. Employees should speak to their employer if they have any concerns or are not sure about whether they should self-isolate. When someone has been off sick with covid and is ready to go back to work, they should talk with their employer as early as possible. If someone is ready to go back to the workplace, they should check their organisation's sickness and absence policies.

If you test positive for COVID-19 you should isolate for 5 days regardless of vaccination status. Only leave isolation after 5 days if you have no symptoms or your symptoms are improving, including at least 24 hours without a fever. Continue to wear a mask around others until at least day 11 and avoid others who may get severely ill from COVID. Check with your workplace or school system if you have questions about their policies concerning positive COVID-19 tests.

If you've tested positive for COVID-19, you should not go to work. If you test positive, then you need to notify your employer, and you need to self-quarantine for whatever period of time your doctor has said. After that, if you need to be off longer, you could be entitled to some additional benefits or even unemployment benefits, so if you test positive, you should notify your employer and stay home.

Stay home unless you need medical care. Don’t go to work or school and avoid public places like stores. You can return to your usual activities when, for at least 24 hours: Your symptoms are getting better AND You are fever-free (without meds) Take additional precautions for the next 5 days because you may still be able to spread COVID-19 even when you are feeling better. If your symptoms return you develop a fever, or they worsen after you have resumed usual activities, stay home and away from others again.
