2. The order must:

3. Immediately upon receiving an order to cease business operations under subsection 1, an employer shall order all employees or other persons to leave the place of employment or jobsite and shall cease all business operations thereat.
4. Upon request by the Administrator, any law enforcement agency in this State shall render any assistance necessary to carry out the requirement of subsection 3, including but not limited to preventing any employee or other person from remaining at the place of employment or jobsite.
