After months of sheltering in place and waiting for information related to the COVID-19 pandemic, communities across the U.S. are starting to ease up on the strict regulations put in place to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

The CDC has released some guidelines to help you create, implement, and monitor a plan to reopen your business safely.

In the “new normal”, cleaning and disinfecting the workplace has become the highest priority due to the fact that COVID-19 can spread through surfaces and droplets in the air.

Creating a plan to incorporate a strong personal hygiene regimen such as hand washing and using alcohol-based sanitizers, along with keeping common work spaces disinfected using EPA-approved disinfectants that can eradicate coronavirus left in surfaces, is something that every business owner should be mindful of in preparation of reopening.
