Social Distancing and what that looks like

What is social and physical distancing?

Social distancing is deliberately increasing the physical space between people to avoid spreading illness. Staying at least six feet away from other people lessens your chances of catching COVID-19. While we know this may not be as easy in the workplace as essential workers it should be followed as much as possible especially during breaks, meals and at home.

How should you practice social distancing?

  • Reduce the number of people you are around – the fewer, the better, but especially avoid groups. 

  • Stay at least 6 feet away from people not in your household.  

  • Avoid touching your face, and wash your hands or use hand sanitizer as much as possible.  

  • Work in ways that minimize close contact

  • Minimize groups over 10

  • Clean your workspace frequently

¿Cómo se debe practicar la distancia social?

  • Reduce el número de personas a tu alrededor, mientras menos personas, mejor. Evite los grupos.

  • Manténte al menos a 6 pies de distancia de personas que no forman parte de su hogar.

  • No esté lleno de gente, evita tocar tu cara, y lava las manos o utiliza un desinfectante antibacterial para las manos.
