Eureka Recycling initiated a proactive OSHA consultation in July of 2018, which was in essence a scheduled safety audit, and we were deemed in good standing. Annually, we perform a mock audit in conjunction with our insurance company to ensure continued compliance and good practice. Summarize your COVID safety plans for all operations, including at the MRF where the Recyclables collected from Roseville will be processed. Eureka Recycling understands the concerns surrounding the novel Coronavirus, Covid-19, and have taken the following actions to ensure the safety of all of our employees and the communities we serve. Eureka Recycling is following the CDC guidelines regarding our employee's attendance during the COVID-19 pandemic. If an employee has afever, exhibits any of the symptoms of COVID- 19, or comes into close contact with someone with symptoms, they are asked to not come to work and quarantine based on current recommended guidelines from the CDC. All onsite staff are provided with and required to wear protective personal equipment, including a face mask and gloves. Eye protection is required in the MRF and available to other employees as needed. Additionally, we implemented the following procedures: • We monitor the temperature of all staff at the beginning of their shift and have protocols if an individual's temperature is out of normal range • Employees are required to maintain 6 feet of distance from other individuals while on site or on route. • Employees are required to disinfect the wheel, handle, etc. in their vehicle before and after every change of position or before and after every shift • Extra cleaning of shared spaced in the Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) including before and after breaks • All sort positions have been adjusted to allow for appropriate social distancing • Split break times in the MRF to reduce the amount of staff in the breakroom at one time and to allow for social distancing. Plexiglass barriers have been added to MRF lunchroom tables. • Mandatory hand washing at the beginning of every break • Only critical staff are allowed in the MRF and office building • All staff who can work remotely are doing so to limit the amount of staff on site Lastly, at Eureka we have always provided our all of our employees, including MRF staff, collection drivers, and office staff with benefits including health care and paid time off. We use temporary labor only as a recruitment tool. Because of these practices, our staff have access to health care and feel the support of the organization to stay home when feeling ill, a key strategy to reducing the spread of the Coronavirus.
