Physical Distancing at Work

With many workplaces reopening, it’s essential to keep your space from others to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Here’s what to do to follow physical distancing rules at work:

---

• Staff and customers MUST maintain a distance of two meters (six feet) wherever possible. 
• Offer alternatives to customers such as delivery or pick up services. Consider partnering with a non-profit group to provide delivery options for vulnerable clients/customers who may have a hard time accessing your services. 
• Post self-screening signage at entrances to tell customers to delay their visit 
• Implement strategies to help eliminate customer lineups, such as extended shopping hours 
• Stagger employee use of common break spaces 
• Replace face-to-face meetings with tele- or video-conferencing options 
• Postpone or cancel non-essential work travel.
