Guidance for Proper Face Covering

CDC guidance on personal face coverings can be found here:

 

 

Face coverings should:

 

· Fit snugly but comfortably against the side of the face

· Be secured with ties or ear loops, if provided

· Include multiple layers of fabric

· Allow for breathing without restriction

· Be removed from behind head or ears to minimize hand contact with face

· Be laundered and machine dried if reusable

 

Cleaned, dried coverings can be kept in a clean plastic bag until needed for use

 

It is important to note that face coverings, whether company-issued or personal, are not a substitute for taking measures that are known to be effective in stopping the spread.

Handwashing, and maintaining a social distance of 6 feet apart from others remains the most critical guidance that we can follow.
