[quote=Anonymous]I am looking for input/advice from employers.

I took off last week because my parents are  visiting.  They arrived on Saturday and tested positive for Covid on Monday.  My mom is much better, but my dad is still experiencing symptoms and a fever.  They are quarantining in my basement, but I do have minimal exposure to them.  We are always masked. I've been taking daily Covid tests and all have been negative.

I feel like if I were going to get it, I would've gotten it already. We were in very close proximity and sharing food for two days before they tested positive. Out of an abundance of caution, I let my employers know about my parents.  One of their parents are also visiting and has been dealing with some health issues, so it was the right thing to do. 
 
I let them know that I was able to work this week as long as they were comfortable and would make sure to test every day before work and wear a mask.  
They told me to not to come in all week.

My question is, how should that time be charged?  My feeling is that I should be paid since I am available to work and they are saying not to come in, but I also want to be fair.  I'm hoping to get some input from other employers before I have that conversation.

Thank you! [/quote]
