Greetings ~
As some of you know the governor of Florida has put together a task force of the hospitality industry to work on the re-opening after the COVID-19 quarantine. Below I want to list out for you some of the recommendations that this task force is looking to incorporate. Please NOTE: these are current recommendations from the task force and are NOT set in stone. Since this is such a fluid situation I am sure that changes and adjustments are going to be made along the way. The purpose of this post is to simply keep you my friends up to date on what we are hearing from officials in Florida.
So let’s begin!
Tape marking of 6 feet apart in ride/attraction queues - this seems to be what Shanghai is currently working to set up as they prepare to open
Staff to regularly wipe surfaces down at random
Phase 1 and 2: Staff 65 years of age and older are encouraged to stay home
All employees are required to wear face masks
Touchless hand sanitizer at each ticketing entry and turnstile
Touchless hand sanitizer at each and every ride/attraction entry and exit
Temperature checks for staff prior to shift (temperature above 100.4 may not enter premises)
All employees with flu-like symptoms advised to stay home
Wipe down of all railings and surfaces after every use
Phase 1: 50% capacity
Phase 2: 75% capacity
It seems as though resorts, restaurants and bars will have their own mandates as well with recommendations such as minimal housekeeping in phase 1 to limit in person contact. Disposable plates and menus and encouraging take out instead of on premise dining.
All that is being discussed can be found in this video. The mandates I spoke of above can be found around minute mark 15:00
