3 <br />Events and Gatherings: General Readiness Assessment <br />(continued from previous page) <br />Policies and Procedures <br />Develop policies that encourage sick staff members <br />to stay at home without fear of job loss or other <br />consequences. Protect their privacy, particularly for <br />those with underlying medical conditions and at <br />higher risk for severe illness). <br />Develop options for staff at higher risk for <br />severe illness (e.g., telework or virtual learning <br />opportunities). <br />Develop flexible sick leave policies and practices. <br />Develop options for flexible worksites <br />(e.g., telework) and flexible work hours <br />(e.g., staggered shifts). <br />Develop a plan to monitor absenteeism of staff, <br />cross-train staff, and create a roster of trained <br />back-up staff. <br />Develop a transportation and parking plan to limit <br />contact between attendees (e.g., staggered arrival and <br />ride share drop-off times or locations). <br />Develop a plan for if someone gets sick or shows <br />symptoms of COVID-19 while at the event or venue. <br />(See Preparing for If Someone Gets Sick). <br />Develop a plan to safely serve food, beverages, and <br />merchandise, if applicable. Refer to CDC’s COVID-19 <br />considerations for restaurants and bars for guidance. <br />Other: _____________________________________ <br />Facilities and Supplies <br />Make sure ventilation systems operate properly. If using <br />fans, make sure they do not blow from one person onto <br />another, and increase circulation of outdoor air as much as <br />possible (e.g., opening windows and doors). <br />Make sure water systems and features are safe to use after a <br />prolonged facility shutdown. <br />Develop a plan to use touchless payment options . <br />Develop a plan to use multiple entrances and exits to <br />discourage crowding in waiting areas. <br />Develop a plan to change seating layout or availability of <br />seating, or block off rows or sections so that attendees can <br />stay at least 6 feet apart. <br />Create and install physical barriers, such as sneeze guards <br />and partitions, in areas where it is difficult for individuals <br />to remain at least 6 feet apart. <br />Create physical guides, such as tape on floors and signs on <br />walls, to promote social distancing. <br />Develop a plan to eliminate lines or queues if possible or <br />encourage people to stay at least 6 feet apart by providing <br />signs or other visual cues such as tape or chalk marks in <br />congregation areas such as entrances, exits, and restrooms <br />if a 6-foot distance between attendees is hard to ensure. <br />Develop a plan to reconfigure parking lots, limit <br />congregation points and ensure proper separation (e.g., <br />closing every other space). <br />Purchase adequate supplies to minimize sharing of <br />materials, or limit use to one per family or group of <br />individuals at a time, and clean and disinfect between use. <br />Ensure organizations that share the venue facilities such as <br />food vendors are aware of and follow all safety protocols. <br />Other: _____________________________________ <br />15
