BY GARAGE DOOR SOLUTIONS

These COVID-19 Safety Guidelines have been put together in order to ensure the safety of our Garage Door Solutions installation and service team, our affiliates, as well as our customers. Garage Door Solutions has been determined an “essential business” during this pandemic, so it is important that we continue to offer garage door repair and garage door install services, but operate in a safe manner. The requirements for establishing, implementing and maintaining an effective COVID-19 safety program are contained in Title 8 of the California Code of Regulations, Section 3205 (T8 CCR 3205). Garage Door Solutions used the code to put together the best COVID safety plan available. The code consists of the following eleven elements:

o An effective system of communication
o Recognition & assessment of COVID-19 hazards
o Examination & effective responsiveness to COVID-19 cases in the workplace
o Rectifying of COVID-19 hazards
o Workplace Training & instructions
o Social distancing
o Face Masks
o Other engineering controls, administrative controls & PPE
o Tracing, reporting, recordkeeping & access
o Exclusions for COVID-19 policies
o Return to work process

Proper use of this program requires the COVID 19 safety administrator of our establishment to carefully review the requirements and provisions listed within the program to assure compliance with regulatory standards.
Definitions (standard from the CDC guidelines)
Aerosol-A tiny particle or droplet that’s suspended in the air.
Asymptomatic-Not showing any symptoms (signs of disease or illness). Some people without any symptoms still have and can spread the coronavirus. They’re asymptomatic, but contagious. Fever, cough, and shortness of breath are the main symptoms of COVID-19. Call your healthcare provider or a UVA clinic if you have any of the symptoms.
Centers for Disease Control (CDC)-The United States’ federal health protection organization.
Coronavirus-A family of related viruses. Many of them cause respiratory illnesses. Coronaviruses cause COVID-19, SARS, MERS, and some strains of influenza, or flu. The coronavirus that causes COVID-19 is officially called SARS-CoV-2, which stands for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2.
COVID-19 means coronavirus disease, an infectious disease caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).
COVID-19 case means a person who:
Has a positive “COVID-19 test” as defined in this section;
Is subject to a COVID-19-related order to isolate issued by a local or state health official; or
Has died due to Covid-19 in the determination of a local health department or per inclusion in the Covid-19 statistics of a county.
A person is no longer a “COVID-19 case” in this section when a licensed health care professional determines that the person does not have COVID-19, in accordance with recommendations made by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) or the local health department pursuant to authority granted under the Health and Safety Code or Title 17, California Code of Regulations to CDPH or the local health department.
COVID-19 exposure means being within six feet of a COVID-19 case for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or greater in any 24-hour period within or overlapping with the “high-risk exposure period” defined by this section. This definition applies regardless of the use of face coverings.
COVID-19 hazard means exposure to potentially infectious material that may contain SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. Potentially infectious materials include airborne droplets, small particle aerosols, and airborne droplet nuclei, which most commonly result from a person or persons exhaling, talking or vocalizing, coughing, sneezing, or procedures performed on persons which may aerosolize saliva or respiratory tract fluids, among other things. This also includes objects or surfaces that may be contaminated with SARS-CoV-2.
COVID-19 symptoms means fever of 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit or higher, chills, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting, or diarrhea, unless a licensed health care professional determines the person’s symptoms were caused by a known condition other than COVID-19.
COVID-19 test means a viral test for SARS-CoV-2 that is: (A) Approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or has an Emergency Use Authorization from the FDA to diagnose current infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus; and (B) Administered in accordance with the FDA approval or the FDA Emergency Use Authorization as applicable.
Exposed workplace means any work location, working area, or common area at work used or accessed by a COVID-19 case during the high-risk period, including bathrooms, walkways, hallways, aisles, and break or eating areas, and waiting areas. The exposed workplace does not include buildings or facilities not entered by a COVID-19 case. (A) Effective January 1, 2021, the “exposed workplace” also includes but is not limited to the “worksite” of the COVID-19 case as defined by Labor Code section 6409.6(d)(5).
Face covering – means a tightly woven fabric or non-woven material with no visible holes or openings, which covers the nose and mouth.
High-risk exposure period means the following time period:
(A) For persons who develop COVID-19 symptoms: from two days before they first develop symptoms until 10 days after symptoms first appeared, and 24 hours have passed with no fever, without the use of fever-reducing medications, and symptoms have improved; or
(B) For persons who test positive who never develop COVID-19 symptoms: from two days before until ten days after the specimen for their first positive test for COVID-19 was collected.
N95 respirator-Unlike a surgical or cloth mask, N95 respirators (sometimes called N95 masks) are designed to prevent the wearer from breathing in tiny particles. When fit properly, they filter out at least 95% of large and small particles.
PPE-PPE Stands for personal protective equipment. This includes masks, face shields, gloves, gowns and other coverings that healthcare workers use to prevent the spread of infection to themselves and other patients.
Quarantine-Sometimes called “isolation.” Quarantines keep people away from each other to prevent the spread of disease. Stay-at-home orders are a type of quarantine.
Social distancing-Also called physical distancing. It means putting space between yourself and other people at all times. The goal is to slow down how fast an infection spreads. Stay-at-home orders are a way that the government can enforce social distancing.
The CDC recommends keeping at least six feet between you and others around you in public. Social distancing also includes avoiding crowds and groups in public.
Symptomatic-When a person shows signs of illness. For COVID-19, that includes cough, fever or shortness of breath.

COMMUNICATION – 3205 (c) (1) Communication is essential to work in a safe environment. Our Garage Door Solutions team must agree to maintain communication between Garage Door Solution’s employees, between customers and garage technician, and amongst all personnel on garage door installation jobsites. Garage Door Solution’s management and staff hold daily meetings to stay informed and up to date on health and safety issues, as well as follow the CDC guidelines to become an essentially safe, productive garage door install and repair contractor. The following system of communication is determined the best form of communication between and within the Garage Door Solutions team, as well as the Garage Door Repair technician to customer and/or jobsite personnel. Our team works hard to pre-screen customers and garage door jobsites to ensure safe environments:

Who employees should report COVID-19 symptoms & possible hazards to, and how. Example: Garage Door Solutions personnel are expected to report to their supervisors if they are experiencing signs or symptoms of COVID-19, as described below. If you have a specific question about this Plan or COVID-19, please ask your supervisor. If they cannot answer the question, please contact human resources.

Employee’s ability to report COVID-19 exposures, & hazards without the fear of reprisal. Example: If any of our Garage Door Solutions’ employees become sickly due to COVID-19, has been exposed to someone with COVID-19, suspects that they are or could be asymptomatic of COVID-19, they will be required to quarantine. If any Garage Door Solutions employees have a sick family member at home with COVID-19, has symptoms of COVID-19 (e.g., fever, cough, or shortness of breath), or receives a report of COVID-19 from a health care provider, they should immediately contact Human Resources right away. Garage Door Solutions’ employees should be aware that there will be no reprisal from the company for such reporting. This is critical to protect other Garage Door Solutions’ employees, garage door jobsite contacts, employees and customers who may have come into contact with an Garage Door Solutions employee at risk of spreading COVID-19 and will allow the Company to take appropriate next steps, like increased cleaning or even limited office closures.
Procedures & policies for specials accommodations for employees with medical or other conditions that put them at increased risk of severe COVID-19 illness. Example: Garage Door Solutions will provide options for alternative work or social distancing whenever possible. Management will not terminate, suspend, or take any other disciplinary action against employees exercising their rights of safety, nor take any action that would result in loss of the high-risk employee’s current position by permanent replacement but a doctor’s note is required if the employee is to stay employed with Garage Door Solutions.

Providing information about COVID-19 testing. Example: Garage Door Solutions will provide our employees with information concerning COVID-19 exposures, COVID-19 testing locations, and offer COVID-19 testing to Garage Door Solutions employees during their working hours, when required. Please contact our H.R. department for testing facilities in your area.
When testing is not required, and workers voluntarily want to be tested, they will be informed on how they can access COVID-19 testing themselves. This is to give workers tools to get tested when they have symptoms, and to reduce the likelihood of bringing the COVID-19 to work.
Communicating information about COVID-19 hazards & the employer’s COVID-19 policies & procedures to employees & to other employer’s persons, & entities within or in contact with the employer’s workplace. Example: Garage Door Solutions will issue hazard alerts through our existing employee notification procedures and or other applicable processes for outside sources such as emails, bulletin board postings, warning signs, and text messages. We will limit the source of these alerts and other related information to reliable organizations such as, but not limited to the CDC, World Health Organization and OSHA.
In the event we are required to provide testing because of a any exposure or a known outbreak, Garage Door Solutions will communicate the plan for providing the COVID testing. Garage Door Solutions will notify any and all affected garage door repairman of the reason for the testing and the possible outcome of a positive test

IDENTIFICATION & EVALUATION OF COVID-19 HAZARDS – 3205 (c) (2)
Garage Door Solutions will:
Enforce Garage Door Solutions employees & teammates active participation in the COVID-19 prevention safety program. Example: Garage Door Solutions will evaluate the potential sources of COVID-19 hazards that could affect our onsite team or garage technician. This includes all areas where people may congregate or come in contact with one another. For example: meetings, entrances, bathrooms, hallways, aisles, walkways, elevators, break or eating areas, cool-down areas, waiting areas, and jobsites. We will also evaluate tools and equipment that are potentially shared. Cleaning and disinfecting areas and items at our location immediately.
Develop & enforce a process for screening Garage Door Solutions employees with COVID-19 symptoms. Example: In order to prevent the spread of the coronavirus and reduce the potential risk of exposure to our workforce, Garage Door Solutions is requiring all employees to complete a pre-screening questionnaire before returning to any Garage Door Solutions office, job or jobsite. After completing questionnaire, with all answers deemed COVID-19 safe, they are approved to work for the day. If any answers are determined a COVID-19 risk, or any noticeable symptoms are noticed, then the employee must leave the workplace and seek medical attention and applicable testing until they are determined safe. If an employee exhibits COVID-19 symptoms, the employee must remain at home until he or she is symptom free for 72 hours (3 full days) without the use of fever-reducing or other symptom-altering medicines.
Develop policies & procedures to respond effectively to COVID-19 in order to prevent or reduce the risk of spreading the disease. Example: Garage Door Solutions requires than any employee that tests positive for COVID-19 to self-quarantine away from work. Employees that test positive may return to work when they no longer have symptoms, at least ten (10) days have passed since the date their positive COVID-19 test, and have not had a remaining illness symptoms. Garage Door Solutions employees that self-care at home may return to work when: (1) at least 72 hours (3 full days) have passed since recovery, and (2) at least ten (10) days have passed since symptoms first appeared. Garage Door Solutions employees that test positive and have been hospitalized may return to work when they have their doctor’s written permission.
Inspect all social areas within our workplace, or shared equipment and materials that could potentially expose employees to COVID-19. Example: Garage Door Solutions will identify all shared and high-risk areas where garage door employees are forced to stand together (hallways, break areas, vehicles, etc) and monitor them so social distancing is in place where possible. Garage Door Solutions will minimize interactions when picking up or delivering equipment or materials to ensure minimum 6-foot separation. Our safety meetings include reminder topics to encourage employees to avoid sharing personal items at work, like phones, desks, offices, tools, and equipment. When necessary, clean and disinfect them before and after use. Garage Door Solutions will provide hand sanitizer in accessible locations. Stickers have been placed to monitor traffic direction and flow. Signage are posted as a reminder of good hygiene and how it helps to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
For indoor locations, all windows must stay open during work hours to encourage more outdoor airflow indoors. Example: Garage Door Solutions will attempt to reduce the number of people in all indoor areas at the same time, encouraging social distancing that reduces the risk of COVID-19 exposre and also allows more outside air provided for each person and better overall air quality. Garage Door Solutions will attempt to utilize outdoor air to the extent possible by opening windows and doors where those opportunities are available.
*Garage Door Solutions will periodically review applicable orders and guidance from the State of California and the local health department related to COVID-19 hazards and prevention.
*Garage Door Solutions will periodically evaluate existing COVID-19 prevention controls at the workplace and the need for different/additional controls when and where applicable.
*Garage Door Solutions will conduct periodic inspections as needed to identify unhealthy conditions, work practices, and work procedures related to COVID-19, in our workplace.
