A case is someone who tests positive.
A contact is someone within 6' of a case for more than 15 minutes from two days before and during their symptomatic period.

Contacts have to quarantine for 14 days.

You do not need a negative test after a positive test to return to work, let alone two.
Employers, stop asking for this. People can have viral fragments that are not infectious detected for weeks.
