The health and safety of employees is our highest priority. All employees are now required to wear a mask or cloth face-covering that covers his or her mouth and nose at all times* while in the workplace.

This includes while on the phone; if you have a problem using the phone with a cloth mask, we suggest using a temporary mask while on the phone as they are easier to talk through. See Michael Boudrieau if you need a temporary mask or a replacement mask.

*Please note the following exceptions:

• Employees whose health or safety is put at risk by wearing a mask or cloth face-covering are not required to do so with their doctor’s authorization on file with Human Resources. If this applies to you, please contact Tara Garcia in HR.

• Employees who wish to eat or drink may remove their mask to do so, provided they are situated six feet away from others, perform the necessary hand hygiene and replace the mask when they are done.

Please note: this policy is an addition to our previous communications regarding preventing the spread of COVID-19. All company advice on remote work and social distancing remain in place. Please continue to practice social distancing even when wearing a mask. Failure to comply may result in disciplinary action taken.
