Below is a list of potential guidelines to be enforced in your commonly used spaces such as break rooms, locker rooms, bathrooms, office and meeting space.

Breakroom Guidelines

1. Capacity Control:
   • Limit the number of seats in the break room to ensure acceptable distances of 1 to 2 meters (3 to 6 feet)
   • Limit and/or space chairs appropriately.
   • Post capacity at break room entrances
   • Place signage on table to ensure proper social distancing in each seat – sign says yes or no to sit
   • Consider allowing employees to sit only on one side of table
   • Remind employees not to arrive early to break to ensure limited exposure and capacity control
   • Adjust break times to limit overflow of employees: Separate times by 10 minutes to have enough time to wipe tables, seats, all surfaces, refrigerator, vending machines, and microwave ovens after each use.
   • Place a permanent mark on the floors to ensure proper distance (anywhere where there is a line)

2. Outdoor Considerations:
   • Designate parking space(s)
   • Place a permanent mark on the pavement to ensure proper distance (anywhere where there is a line)
   • Use outside pavilions
   • Increase the number of seats

3. Vendor Protocol:
   • Do not allow any self-service in full cafeteria service
   • Potential alternative – Schedule Food trucks that have the necessary municipality credentials and certified by the local Health Department.

Locker Rooms Guidelines:

1. Ensure proper social distancing during shift change
2. Adjust shift start & end times schedule to accommodate locker room space

   • Safe meeting spaces could be painted on the floor to encourage the Social Distancing of 1 to 2 meters (3 to 6 feet).
2. Meeting Rooms:
   • No more than 10 employees at any meeting; times for meetings may be staggered and larger groups must be divided to meet the 10 employee maximum.

3. Bathrooms
   • Establish maximum capacity for the facility that allows for social distancing
