CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19)

On March 13, 2020, in preparation for the possible community transmission of coronavirus (COVID-19), Governor Carney declared a State of Emergency due to a Public Health Threat. Modifications to this declaration and Additional Orders have subsequently been issued.

The Department of Human Resources created this single resource page to update state employees on the latest information regarding policies, practices and procedures related to COVID-19. This information can also be found in appropriate locations throughout DHR’s website. The safety and well-being of state employees is our first priority. Information on this page will continually be updated as new information becomes available. Please be sure to check back often.

Questions or concerns should be discussed with your supervisor or with your agency HR representative.
