Casinos in Nevada have been closed since mid-March following the command by the government of a national lockdown due to COVID-19. Many other businesses across all states have begun reopening as well. Authorities have warned that although companies may open their doors, it’s not business as usual. Employers must create safe and hygienic work environments to curb the spread of the virus.
