COVID GUIDELINES
Places of worship can open with public health measures in place.
Regularly clean shared surfaces before and after each service. Routine cleaning using household/supermarket detergents is sufficient to substantially reduce viral levels on surfaces.
- Every person attending must wear a face mask. Children under 8 do not need to wear a face mask, but are encouraged to wear one.
- Offer multiple services so everyone attending can keep a safe distance apart.
- Let fresh air in by opening windows. This will improve ventilation and can help reduce the risk of catching or spreading COVID-19.
- Provide hand sanitizers or soap so attendees can wash their hands.
- Remove communal resources such as bibles or fans and encourage attendees to bring their own.
All businesses can open and have customers on their premises if they can do so safely.
- Businesses should keep contact tracing records using RockSafe or a written register of customers and staff.
- Businesses may open at full capacity — as long as customers and workers can keep at least 1 metre apart. To help everyone physically distance safely, you can:
- limit the number of people allowed in the store at any given time
- use signs and posters to direct traffic flow, and let people know where they need to stand if they need to queue
- use plastic or glass partitions between customers and workers.
- Regularly clean high-touch surfaces and equipment – for example, door handles, handrails, counters and shared facilities. Routine cleaning using household/supermarket detergents is sufficient to reduce viral levels on surfaces substantially.
- In the event that the business premises is notified of being a location of interest, the business must decontaminate all of its high-touch surfaces and follow any other health guidelines before resuming operations.
