COVID-19 Safety Training: Back to the Workplace

Currently, the Back to the Workplace training has technical difficulties when viewed on an iPhone. Please use another device until the issue is resolved.

The University’s COVID-19 Safety Training: Back to the Workplace includes information to help prevent the transmission of COVID-19 on campus such as social and physical distancing, staying home if you are sick, symptom attestation, proper hygiene measures, cleaning and disinfection procedures, required face coverings and personal protective equipment.

Note: COVID-19 Safety Training: Back to the Workplace must be completed by all University personnel before or upon returning to work on site at a University location, even if personnel have been performing critical work on site at a UW work location. 

Notify the EH&S Training team if translation services are needed.

If you have technical or other issues viewing this course, please contact the EH&S Training team.

University units may provide their own training (e.g., medical centers) that covers the elements of the University’s COVID-19 Safety Training. University units that wish to provide their own training to personnel may download and utilize the Back to the Workplace training slides. Units that provide their own COVID-19 safety training for returning to work must document and retain attendance records as required by Governor Inslee’s Safe Start Plan.

In addition to general University’s COVID-19 Safety Training, units are required to provide documented training on the contents of their unit or site-specific COVID-19 Prevention Plan.
