COVID-19 Safety Protocols

 Effective July 6, everyone entering, BPA facilities, worksites or areas where BPA work is being conducted is required to properly wear a face covering over their nose and mouth when social distancing cannot be ensured. This policy will remain in effect until further notice.

Face coverings are required when:
•Social distancing cannot be assured, specifically when individuals are working within 6 feet of each other.
•Entering, exiting, and moving through common areas such as walking through lobbies, hallways, multiple occupancy spaces, breakrooms, and restrooms. During these movements, the ability to maintain social distancing cannot be assured.

During Level 2-A and 2-B, managers will be responsible for review and approval of building access. Generally, employees who are teleworking will not be given access, unless approved by the employee’s manager to meet a business need requiring entry. If approved, employees should engage in a self-screen questionnaire prior to building entry and avoid entry during shift changes for mission essential function workers from 5:30-6:30 a.m. and 5:30-6:30 p.m. at Munro, Dittmer and headquarters.
