Hi Isabelle,

The general guidelines for public and most workplaces (non-healthcare) include:

1. Hand washing: reducing the risk of common infections

2. Good hygiene practices: reducing the speak of infection and viruses

3. Know the appropriate procedures for general sanitation and infection control, and how to work safely with hazardous products including bleach.

4. If using gloves when cleaning, always wear the appropriate type of glove for the product you are using.

5. Keep a distance of 2 meters between you, your coworkers, and customers.

6. Reduce activities that require close physical proximity or contact with people, such as team meetings.

7. Increase distance between desks, tables, and workstations.
