Governor Newsom has provided assurance that fully vaccinated employees will not be required to wear masks indoors, even among unvaccinated coworkers. The Cal/OSHA Standards Board will take formal action on this matter later this week to put the new standard in effect by June 28th. In today’s Tribune, the Governor noted that the gap between today and June 28th will be “addressed properly” noting that he is “very mindful of the gap”. More information will be shared as it is available.
The San Luis Obispo County Community College District and Cuesta College trust employees to respect the following mask guidance:
You are welcome to wear a mask regardless of your vaccination status. Masks have been proven effective in protecting the wearer and those around them. Masks, both surgical and N95, are available through the work order system in myCuesta. Select work orders, safety tools and sanitizing materials, and complete the short form. Other PPE and sanitizing supplies are also available using the same form.
