Hand sanitizer: If soap and water are <br />not available and hands are not visibly <br />dirty, an alcohol -based hand sanitizer <br />that contains at least 60% alcohol may be <br />used. However, if hands are visibly dirty, <br />always wash hands with soap and water. <br />• Additional key times to wash <br />hands include: <br />- After blowing one's nose, coughing, <br />or sneezing. <br />- After using the restroom. <br />- Before eating or preparing food. <br />- After contact with animals or pets. <br />- Before and after providing routine care <br />for another person who needs assistance <br />(e.g., a child). <br />For facilities that house people overnight: <br />Additional Considerations <br />for Employers <br />• Educate workers <br />performing cleaning, laundry, <br />and trash pick-up to recognize <br />the symptoms of COVID-19. <br />• Provide instructions on what to do if they <br />develop symptoms within 14 days after their <br />last possible exposure to the virus. <br />• Develop policies for worker protection and <br />provide training to all cleaning staff on site <br />prior to providing cleaning tasks. <br />- Training should include when to use PPE, <br />what PPE is necessary, how to properly don <br />(put on), use, and doff (take off) PPE, and <br />how to properly dispose of PPE. <br />• Ensure workers are trained on the hazards of <br />the cleaning chemicals used in the workplace in <br />accordance with OSHA's Hazard Communication <br />standard (29 CFR 1910,12QQ). <br />• Comply with OSHA's standards on Bloodborne <br />Pathogens (29 CFR 1910.103 0], including proper <br />disposal of regulated waste, and PPE (29 CFR <br />1910.132). <br />• Follow CDC's guidance for colleges and universities. Work with state and local health officials to <br />determine the best way to isolate people who are sick and if temporary housing is needed. <br />• For guidance on cleaning and disinfecting the bedroom/bathroom for someone who is sick, review CDC's <br />guidance on disinfecting your home if someone is sick. <br />Page 3 of 3 <br />
