Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)
To ensure continuity of operations of essential functions, CDC advises that critical infrastructure workers may be permitted to continue work following potential exposure to COVID-19, provided they remain asymptomatic and additional precautions are implemented to protect them and the community.
A potential exposure means being a household contact or having close contact within 6 feet of an individual with confirmed or suspected COVID-19. The timeframe for having contact with an individual includes the period of time of 48 hours before the individual became symptomatic.
Critical Infrastructure workers who have had an exposure but remain asymptomatic should adhere to the following practices prior to and during their work shift:
If the employee becomes sick during the day, they should be sent home immediately. Surfaces in their workspace should be cleaned and disinfected. Information on persons who had contact with the ill employee during the time the employee had symptoms and 2 days prior to symptoms should be compiled. Others at the facility with close contact within 6 feet of the employee during this time would be considered exposed.

Food safety is the single most important issue the food industry prioritizes every day. Without a safe food supply, we risk the trust and confidence of the consumers we’re committed to serving.
Ensuring Food Safety and Quality with SQF and HACCP HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) and SQF (Safe Quality Food) are both systems designed to ensure the safety of food production.
