In July, the Chamber joined with other community leaders in promoting “Mask of Wellness,” a movement to promote “COVID-Conscious” businesses. The message was simple and remains consistent, encouraging three basic impactful measures:

• Masks worn by all employees
• Personal, surface, and distance hygiene
• Daily health self-certification

The website maskofwellness.com provides businesses with a free, printable toolkit. We had all hoped that the threat of COVID-19 would be in the rear view mirror by now, but clearly it is not.

As we try to protect our family, friends, and neighbors, we also have now learned of the impact a positive test result can have in our workplace.

Let’s all do our best to stop the spread and help keep our businesses open through the holidays.
