SACRAMENTO — California regulators have approved revised worksite pandemic rules that allow fully vaccinated employees the same freedoms as when they are off the job.
The revised regulations adopted Thursday come after weeks of confusion. They conform with general state guidelines by ending most mask rules for people who are vaccinated against the coronavirus.
The governor-appointed California Occupational Safety and Health Standards Board approved them on a 5-1 vote.
Gov. Gavin Newsom planned to quickly issue an executive order sidestepping the usual legal review that would normally keep the rules from taking effect until June 28.
The rules apply in almost every workplace in the state, including to workers in offices, factories and retail.
