COVID-19 Safety Policies 

The health and safety of our youth and their families is our top priority and we have implemented the policies below based on the guidance provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and local health authorities during the COVID-19 pandemic. Failure to comply with the policies outlined here may result in being asked to leave from program, event, or group. Personal Hygiene and Safety Protocols We are following protocols provided by the CDC, as well as any state or local health requirements. We may also implement additional safety requirements, at our discretion, at any time. Our current safety requirements are as follows: ● Wash your hands as soon as you enter the workplace. ● Wash your hands after touching any high-touch surface with bare hands, such as door handles, water cooler buttons, security or payment keypads, or communal workstations. If possible, cover your hand with something when touching high-touch surfaces. ● Wear a face covering that covers your nose and mouth, at all times, unless you have received specific instruction otherwise. ● Stay at least 6 feet away from all other people, at all times. If a 6-foot distance cannot be maintained, a mask must be worn, even if you are otherwise exempted from that requirement. ● If you cough or sneeze while not wearing a face covering, do so into your elbow or a tissue. Immediately throw away the tissue (if used), promptly wash your hands, and put on a face covering to avoid further exposing those around you. Close Contact with an Infected Person If someone in your household or someone with whom you have had close contact (less than 6 feet) has been diagnosed with COVID-19, including a presumptive diagnosis. We recommend you stay for the safety of our youth and families until you can provide a negative COVID-19 result. Safety Outside of the Workplace You are strongly encouraged to follow current CDC guidelines, including maintaining 6 feet of distance between yourself and anyone who does not live in your household and wearing cloth face coverings in public settings, especially when other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain. We reserve the right to require you to be asked to leave, if you engage in behaviors that we feel puts other youth and families at risk. Questions If you have questions about any of these policies, or how the Company is dealing with other issues related to COVID-19, please reach out to our office at (916) 452-360. Responsibility Failure to comply with any of these policies may result in discipline in asking youth or individual(s) to leave
