On April 27, Gov. Mike DeWine announced a gradual plan for reopening Ohio’s economy after six weeks of a mandatory stay-at-home order, reports Ohio Ag Net.
As the rest of Ohio starts to reopen, all businesses (including agricultural businesses) have been directed by Gov. DeWine to follow additional protocols.
The general safe business practices that all businesses must follow are:
- Encouraging face coverings for all employees, and recommending them for clients and customers at all times
- Conducting daily health assessments or self-evaluations of employees to determine if they should work
- Maintaining good hygiene at all times such as hand washing and social distancing
- Cleaning and sanitizing workplaces throughout the day and at the close of business or between shifts
- Limiting capacity to meet social distancing guidelines.
For many agribusinesses, many of these measures have already been implemented.
