On December 27, 2021, the CDC shortened its recommended isolation and quarantine periods for confirmed positive cases of Covid and well as cases of exposure to confirmed positive cases of Covid-19. The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (“KDHE”) has adopted the CDC’s guidance as set forth below:
People with lab confirmed COVID-19 infections (regardless of vaccination status).
People who are boosted who are Close Contacts of a person with confirmed COVID-19 infection; people who are fully vaccinated with Pfizer/Moderna within last 6 months who are Close Contacts of a person with confirmed COVID-19 infection; and people who are fully vaccinated with Johnson & Johnson within last 2 months who are Close Contacts of a person with confirmed COVID-19 infection.
People who are fully vaccinated with Pfizer/Moderna over 6 months ago and no booster and are close contacts of a person with confirmed COVID-19 infection and people who are fully vaccinated with Johnson & Johnson over 2 months ago and no booster or unvaccinated and are close contacts of a person with confirmed COVID-19 infection.

"HR Partners has helped us with those 'I’ll get around to it' things such as an employee handbook and updating employee files. The most important benefit is they are a phone call away from peace of mind on all things HR.
It is a challenge for any employer to keep up on changes to personnel practices and requirements. The suite of services HR Partners can provide is comprehensive and affordable. The question should be, can you afford not to engage them as part of your employee relations program?"
