The following policy has been implemented to protect our employees to the greatest of our ability from the spread of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). COVID-19 is a respiratory disease that has spread from China to many other countries around the world, including the United States. Infection with SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, can cause illness ranging from mild to severe and, in some cases, can be fatal. Regardless of potential occupational exposures, the following Pandemic Response Plan will be mplemented in order to limit the risk to our employees. Our employees will be trained in all aspects of our plan, and the plan will be available for review by workers and their representatives. Prevention and Precautions Our employees' risk of exposure will be continually assessed and evaluated. Controls to prevent exposure will be selected and implemented as appropriate, and workers will be required to use them. These include engineering controls such as physical barriers to control the spread of the virus; administrative controls such as no large meetings or gatherings and physical distancing; and appropriate personal protective equipment, hygiene, and cleaning supplies. a. Policies and practices, such as flexible worksites (e.g., telecommuting) and flexible work hours (e.g., staggered shifts), will be used if possible to increase the physical distance among employees and between employees and others. b.

Signs, tape marks, or other visual cues will be used to indicate where to stand when physical barriers are not possible. c. Signs will be posted reminding workers, customers, and visitors to maintain at least six feet between one another. Directional signs will be posted in hallways/corridors where the width restricts movement and limits social distancing. d. On-site safety meetings will be adjusted to ensure physical distancing guidelines. When possible, other meetings and interviews will be conducted via phone or digital platforms or held outside. e. Workers will be discouraged from using other workers' phones, desks, offices, and other work tools and equipment, whenever possible. Shared items will be cleaned and disinfected before and after each use. f. Daily health/temperature checks will be conducted and/or employees will be encouraged to self-monitor/self-screen and notify their supervisor when they are sick or experiencing symptoms of COVID-19.
