Riverside County Moves Further Ahead in State plan with Re-opening of Malls, Restaurants

Riverside County was approved to move into the later part of Stage 2 of the resilience roadmap.

Please review the guidance that is relevant to your workplace, prepare a plan based on the guidance for your industry, and put it into action.

When complete, you can post the industry-specific checklist (below) in your workplace.

Before reopening, all facilities must:

  1. Perform a detailed risk assessment and implement a site-specific protection plan
  2. Train employees on how to limit the spread of COVID-19, including how to screen themselves for symptoms and stay home if they have them
  3. Implement individual control measures and screenings
  4. Implement disinfecting protocols
  5. Implement physical distancing guidelines

It is critical that employees needing to self-isolate because of COVID-19 are encouraged to stay at home, with sick leave policies to support that, to prevent further infection in your workplace. See additional information on government programs supporting sick leave and worker’s compensation for COVID-19.

Building off of the previous industries approved to re-open, the two following areas of our economy are approved to re-open with modifications:

Dine-in restaurants
This guidance for Dine-in restaurants provides guidelines to create a safer environment for workers. Review the guidance, prepare a plan, and post the https://covid19.ca.gov/pdf/checklist-dine-in-restaurants.pdf in your workplace to show customers and employees that you’ve reduced the risk and are open for business.

Shopping centers
This guidance for shopping centers provides guidelines to create a safer environment for workers. Review the guidance, prepare a plan, and post the checklist for shopping centers in your workplace to show customers and employees that you’ve reduced the risk and are open for business.
