Cleaning Protocols. 1. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, cleaning protocols must include increased frequency and attention and enhanced methods to minimize transmission of the virus. As such, cleaning will be a shared interest of all staff in the district.
Cleaning Protocols. During the COVID-19 pandemic, enhanced cleaning protocols will be used to minimize transmission risk for our employees and customers. It is important to understand what protocols are in place in our facility in order to assess the level of risk involved in utilizing our facility. Staff and users will need to be satisfied as to the sufficiency of the cleaning protocols in relation to the risks posed by activities in facility. Staff and users need to work cooperatively to support each other in ensuring that everyone understands the risks of their activities. For example, how do people who use our facility move through spaces, use any equipment, and who are they? Are the participants children (likely to need lots of supervision and reminders about touching and hygiene, and more cleaning of walls, equipment, and other items at child height) or seniors or other groups more vulnerable to serious illness. All which may trigger a need for additional enhanced cleaning protocols. Here is what our team will be undertaking:
Cleaning Protocols. Contractors should ensure any offices and job sites implement the cleaning measures of common areas as recommended by the CDC and PHAC.

Individuals are responsible for cleaning their workstation area with disinfectant wipes. Additional sanitary measures are implemented on site: water stations, a hand washing protocol, hand sanitizer stations, provision of disinfectant wiping products.
