Bronchitis isn't contagious (I've had chronic bronchitis for the last four months), but either way she should be covering her mouth. She could be carrying other viruses and the mouth has plenty of bacteria in it on its own, where the spit/mucus ejected by a cough could cause a problem for others.
Also: maybe, at a time when she's at home (and you are too), you should offer to TAKE her to a doctor to get it over with. She needs a bronchodilator and possibly antibiotics if she's developed pneumonia from a consistent infection.

Maybe she has other stuff after work... If not, destroy her. Sorry OP
Plus side is, once a cold hits bronchitis stage, it's usually not contagious anymore. It can start from a cold or allergies and work into a sinus infection then settle into bronchitis, if you don't watch it, you can be down with pneumonia pretty quickly. Mine always starts out as allergies, so it's never contagious. I deal with bronchitis yearly (I have it right now) and I'm suprised she could even manage to work 20 hrs a week. My brain is such a fog, I can't do anything. Luckily, I'm able to stay home until I'm better. Make her wear a mask.
