COVID-19: State and Local Mandates on Closure of Non-Essential Businesses
Location Start Date End Date Affected Businesses Businesses Not Included
US Department of Homeland Security –
list of what the federal government deems
critical infrastructure workers in light of so
many state and local closures. While DHS
acknowledges that state and local governments
ultimately decide what is essential, DHS issued
this list to provide some guidance to those
government officials. If you have a business
on this list, and the local or state closure order
is not clear on whether the client’s business is
essential, this list may be a helpful guide.

CA guidance (most recent updates to Essential
Critical Infrastructure Workers are in blue
text).
We believe that only if a business is in one of
the 16 sectors will you actually look at both the
LA County and LA City orders. The County
order seems to require the closure of only non-
essential retail businesses as defined. The City
of LA order is more clear and requires the
closure of non-essential businesses as defined.
3/19/20 Until further
notice • Residents must stay-at-
home except those who
work in one of 16
critical infrastructure
sectors, such
transportation,
healthcare or financial
services (see link for
list of all sectors).
• Residents working in one of
the following 16 critical
infrastructure sectors (see link
for details of all sectors):
o Chemical
o Commercial facilities
o Communications
o Critical manufacturing
o Dams
o Defense industrial base
o Emergency services
o Energy
o Financial services
o Food and agriculture
o Government facilities
o Healthcare and public
health
o Information technology
