The state of Michigan plans to extend COVID-19 emergency business place rules that expire Wednesday, but Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said Monday the extension does not mean six more months of prohibitions on in-office work.
Whitmer said her administration is working with businesses, labor and public health experts to promulgate what that back-to-work cadence looks like. But at this juncture, with our high positivity numbers, it s really important that we extend for another six months so that we have the ability to work through what these protocols look like and get people back into the workplace when it s safe to do so with the right protocols, Whitmer said at a Ypsilanti press conference.
