BEST PRACTICES FOR RE-OPENING RETAIL FOOD ESTABLISHMENTS DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

We encourage retail food establishments to partner with local regulatory/health authorities to discuss the specific requirements for their retail food establishment prior to re-opening.

EMPLOYEE HEALTH / SCREENING

• Do you have a protocol to check employee health and personal hygiene practices within your food establishment?

• Are you following CDC guidance and practices for employee health checks/screenings?

• Have you checked CDC and local regulatory/health authority guidance for employees returning back to work?

• Is there a plan to monitor and respond to a higher than normal level of absenteeism?

• Is there a plan or policy for, and an adequate supply of, personal protective equipment (PPE) and/or cloth face coverings? Cloth face coverings should only be used if PPE is not required, and changed as needed if worn.
