Employees, including student employees, are encouraged to report their COVID-19 cases to CTVNS either by following instructions online, emailing contacttracing@uci.edu, or calling 949-824-2300. Employees should follow instructions for isolation and clearance to return to work.
Consistent with Cal/OSHA COVID-19 Prevention Non-Emergency Regulations and related statutes, when an employee reports a COVID-19 case to campus, Contact Tracing and Vaccine Navigation Services will conduct a case investigation, notify employee close contacts, and post exposure locations daily on the COVID-19 dashboard webpage.
Effective June 17, 2023, students are no longer required to report COVID-19 cases to the campus, and UCI will discontinue student case investigations, close-contact notifications and isolation housing support. Students who have COVID-19 will self-manage their symptoms similar to how they manage other illnesses and follow Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance for isolation. Students who are also UCI employees should follow the instructions above for employee case reporting.
