My firm is not disclosing when people that tested covid positive come in to the office. Are any other firms doing this?

My parents can't get vaccinated, and knowing this information would decide whether I see them.

I'm disappointed in my firm for behaving this way, and want to know if it's unique to them.

If your parents are really that susceptible then you should be wearing fitted N95s at the office and then isolating & testing before seeing your parents.

You are interacting with Covid in the environment whether you are aware of it or not, in stores, restaurants, transit, elevators… basically everywhere. Whether work notifies you of this or not doesn’t make much of a difference if you isolate and test before seeing your parents (if they’re highly susceptible).

I’d recommended getting tested before seeing them regardless, that should be your deciding factor

Due to HIPPA they cannot release names or inform anyone. It’s terrible but they have to cover themselves from a HIPPA violation. My firm does the same and will only alert you if you came in close contact.

My company has been doing this for the past few months. They used to disclose it pretty quickly now we find out after the fact or process of elimination when we notice people are gone for a while. I'm an investigator by nature and I really keep my eye out since I'm not vaccinated. Only a handful of people in my office wear masks and I stay away.

Hi guys

I joined a midsize company this 31st Oct. Now they are asking me to sign an agreement of 6months with the client. Am worried right now and have a different offer in pipeline (offer letter coming in 2days). Am thinking of leaving this organisation and join the other one even if they're offering less CTC.

Please advise if absconding in such manner will affect my career. Is there any consequence if I leave right now?
