Close Contact User and Exposed User Definitions

When doing a trace on the Contact Tracing tab users can be labled as Close Contact or Exposed users.

Per Cal/OSHA the definitions for these two types of users are:

Close Contact User: The definition is based on the size of the workplace in which the exposure took place, regardless of the use of face coverings:

• For indoor spaces of 400,000 or less cubic feet per floor, a close contact is sharing the same indoor space as a COVID-19-infected person for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period during the infected person’s infectious period (as defined) regardless of the use of face coverings.
• For indoor spaces of more than 400,000 cubic feet per floor, a close contact is being within six feet of the COVID-19-infected person for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period during the infected person’s infectious period (as defined) regardless of the use of face coverings.
• Offices, suites, rooms, waiting areas, break or eating areas, bathrooms or other spaces that are separated by floor-to-ceiling walls are considered distinct indoor spaces.

Exposed User: All employees at a work location, working area, or a common area at work, where an employee COVID-19 case was present at any time during the infectious period.
