1. Generic preventive measures

Persons above 65 years of age, persons with comorbidities, pregnant women won’t be allowed.

The generic preventive measures include simple public health measures that are to be followed to reduce the risk of infection with COVID-19. These measures will be observed by Office Team at all times. These include:

• Installation & use of Aarogya Setu App by all.
• Individuals must maintain a social distance as far as feasible.
• Use of face covers/masks to be mandatory.
• Practice frequent hand washing with soap (for at least 40-60 seconds) even when hands are not visibly dirty. Use of alcohol-based hand sanitizers (for at least 20 seconds) can be made wherever feasible.
• Respiratory etiquettes to be strictly followed. This involves strict practice of covering one’s mouth and nose while coughing/sneezing with a tissue/handkerchief/flexed elbow and disposing off used tissues properly.
• Self-monitoring of health by all and reporting any illness at the earliest to the immediate supervisory officer.
• Spitting will be strictly prohibited.

2. Scope: Interim guidance about the cleaning /decontamination of office/ Studio.

2.1. Indoor areas including office spaces

Office spaces, including conference rooms will be cleaned every evening after office hours or early in the morning before the rooms are occupied. If contact surface is visibly dirty, it should be cleaned with soap and water prior to disinfection. Prior to cleaning, the worker should wear disposable rubber boots, gloves (heavy duty), and a triple layer mask.

• Start cleaning from cleaner areas and proceed towards dirtier areas.
• All indoor areas should be mopped with a disinfectant.
• High contact surfaces such as buttons, handrails / handles and call buttons, escalator handrails, public counters, intercom systems, equipment like telephone, printers/scanners, and other office machines should be cleaned twice daily by mopping with a linen/absorbable cloth soaked in sanitizer. Frequently touched areas like table tops, chair handles, pens, diary files, keyboards, mouse, mouse pad, tea/coffee dispensing machines etc. should specially be cleaned.
• For metallic surfaces like door handles, security locks, keys etc. 70% alcohol can be used to wipe down surfaces where the use of bleach is not suitable.
• Hand sanitizing stations should be installed in studio premises (especially at the entry) and near high contact surfaces.
• In a class/ meeting/conference/office room, if someone is coughing, without following respiratory etiquettes or mask, the areas around his/her seat should be vacated and cleaned.
• Carefully clean the equipment used in cleaning at the end of the cleaning process.
• Remove PPE, discard in a disposable PPE in yellow disposable bag and wash hands with soap and water. (If PPE Kits are used)

2.2 Outdoor areas

Outdoor areas have less risk then indoor areas due to air currents and exposure to sunlight. Cleaning and disinfection efforts should be targeted to frequently touched/contaminated surfaces as already detailed above.

2.3 Toilets

Sanitary workers must use separate set of cleaning equipment for toilets (mops, nylon scrubber) and separate set for sink and commode). They should always wear disposable protective gloves while cleaning a toilet.
