As we are located in Canada this is not an issue, several of us (myself) included have been tested. In my case I got the answer in six hours (negative fortunately) and for others the answer has come in twelve to twenty four hours (all negative). But we would pay for this in principle as protecting our workforce is a core value and we allocate budget to this. One the other hand, as with any other cost, there is a finite amount of money, so it would need to depend on a risk/reward assessment.
