distancing of 6 feet and that store occupancy must not exceed limits set <br />forth in the guidance. In customer facing businesses that share <br />common areas, such as malls, all Plans must similarly include a <br />facility occupancy that must not exceed the limits set forth in the <br />guidance and provide an enhanced sanitizing, cleaning, and <br />disinfecting regimen consistent with Minnesota OSHA Standards and <br />MDH and CDC Guidelines for those common areas. All Plans must <br />also include signage in common areas to discourage congregating. <br />iii. Household services businesses. All businesses that provide household <br />services (e.g., housecleaning, maid services, and piano tuners) must <br />also develop Plan provisions intended to keep customers and workers <br />safe as set forth in the applicable guidance available on the Stay Safe <br />Minnesota website (https://staysafe.mn.gov). <br />iv. Optional template. A template COVID-19 Preparedness Plan, which <br />covers the above requirements, is available as part of the Plan <br />Guidance, available on the Stay Safe Minnesota website <br />(https://staysafe.mn.gov). <br />v. Certification and signature. Senior management responsible for <br />implementing the Plan must sign and certify the Plan, affirming their <br />commitment to implement and follow the Plan. <br />vi. Dissemination and posting. Each business must provide its Plan, in <br />writing, to all workers, and the Plan must be posted at all of the <br />business’s workplaces in locations that will allow for the Plan to be <br />readily reviewed by all workers. Where physical posting is <br />impracticable, the Plan can be posted electronically, provided that the <br />Plan is received by all workers and remains available for their review. <br />vii. Training. Each business must ensure that training is provided to <br />workers on the contents of its Plan and required procedures, so that all <br />workers understand and are able to perform the precautions necessary <br />to protect themselves and their co-workers. This training should be <br />easy to understand and available in the appropriate language and <br />literacy level for all workers. Businesses should also take steps to <br />supervise workers and ensure that workers understand and adhere to <br />necessary precautions to prevent COVID-19 transmission. <br />Documentation demonstrating compliance with this training <br />requirement must be maintained and made available to regulatory <br />authorities and public safety officers, including DLI, upon request. <br />viii. Compliance. Workers and management must work together to ensure <br />compliance with the Plan, implement all protocols, policies, and <br />procedures, and create a safe and healthy work environment. <br />16 <br /> <br />
