Local issue/basics: Your manager will determine your suitability for employment if you do/not comply with their directions. A percentage of all patients with covid-19 are asymptomatic carriers. Just how contagious they are is up for debate. Your call.

Follow instructions: Many positive cases remain asymptomatic, it is important to follow recommendations so that you get cleared to return to work.

Agree with Dr. P: Wear a mask, stay away from others, practice hand hygiene. Be sure to get tested, if you get symptoms. If you develop breathing difficulty, go to the nearest hospital, immediately. Wish you good health.
