  This document answers the following questions: I was exposed to COVID-19 at work. What should I do? How can I get help with health insurance, medical care, or mental health support? Where can I get help with food, housing, and mental health? I'm a migrant worker. Where can I get health care? I don't feel safe at work. What can I do? I said I don't feel safe at work because of COVID-19. What can I do if I get in trouble with my employer because of this (retaliation)? I'm not being treated fairly at work because of my race, ethnicity, national origin, immigration status, age, sex, or disability. Is that against the law? I was asked to stay home from work for quarantine or isolation. Can I get paid leave? My employer is not offering paid sick leave for COVID-19. How can I learn more about family and medical leave and unemployment? Where can I learn about my rights? [Description provided by NIOSH]
