If you work at a concession stand, food service outlet, or candy store, protecting yourself from exposure to COVID-19 is paramount and is something that should be taken seriously.
As we know, the coronavirus is spread from person-to-person through respiratory droplets from coughs, sneezes, and common conversation, as well as from having close contact with others (6 feet). It’s also possible to become infected with COVID-19 simply by touching a surface or an item with the virus on it, then touching your mouth, nose, or eyes.
There are several ways for you to protect yourself from exposure as outlined by the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) which include:

- Limit close contact with others by maintaining a distance of at least 6 feet, when possible.

- Minimize handling cash, credit cards, and mobile devices, where possible.

- Practice routine cleaning and disinfection of frequently touched surfaces, such as workstations, cash registers, touch screens, door handles, tables, and countertops, following the directions on the cleaning product’s label.

- Wash your hands regularly with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. An alcohol-based hand sanitizer containing at least 60% alcohol can be used, but not as a substitute for cleaning hands with soap and water.

- Key times to clean hands in general include:

- Before, during, and after preparing food

- Before eating food

- After using the toilet

- After blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing

- Additional times to clean hands on the job include:

- Before and after work shifts

- Before and after work breaks

- After touching frequently touched surfaces

- After interacting with a customer who is visibly ill

- After putting on, touching, or removing cloth face coverings

- After touching objects that have been handled by customers, such as utensils, menus, cups, and trash

- After touching dirty surfaces like floors, walls and soiled carriers and equipment

- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth.

Here at Blair Candy, in our warehouse, offices, and our retail outlet, all our team members have been trained on proper sanitation procedures and our policies revised to ensure that those who feel ill stay home and monitor their symptoms. Face coverings are required not only for our team members, but for visitors and customers to our outlets, in addition to proper social distancing.
Our wholesale division has increased our supply of face masks and hand sanitizer so our bricks-and-mortar customers can rest assured that there will be plenty available for them to purchase.
We have also added these items to our website for those individuals, businesses outside our local delivery/pick-up area, and our regular wholesale customers can have access to them as well.
