Over the last 20 plus years I have owned a large manufacturing facility in Walton County. My first concern has always been my employee safety health and welfare. As an employer it is my responsibility to ensure that I take all precautions to protect my employees.

I am bring this to your attention because I have added a link below of an actual situation for a first responder in Miami who was diagnosed with the Zika Virus, she was instructed to stay home away from work only to return and be told that her Workmen’s Comp. would not cover her lost wages. It is also questionable whether or not her medical bills will be covered under their insurance policy.

So what can you do as an employer!

1. Check your Workmen’s Comp. insurance policy and health insurance policy make sure that you are covered in writing.


2. Ensure that your employees are properly instructed on how to protect themselves against mosquito bites in the workplace.

A. South Walton Mosquito Control would be more than happy to meet with you and your employees to properly instruct them on the protective measures to take while working outside. This is one of the many services that we provide daily. It is also available in Spanish lectures.


3. Always take the time to check your own business to make sure that you are not breeding mosquitoes that could affect your employees and possible customers. Protect yourself at all times.


Don’t become a casualty to this virus join us to be part of the cure!
