The corporate health protocol will be adapted “very quickly” for ask employees to stop using homemade masks declared this Sunday the Secretary of State for Occupational Health, Laurent Pietraszewski guest of our colleagues from France Info. Handcrafted fabric masks are deemed insufficient by the health authorities in the face of highly contagious variants of the virus, and the new measures to fight against the coronavirus must impose wearing masks for the general public and surgical masks.
The Secretary of State for Occupational Health explained on Sunday that “The government has scrupulously followed the recommendations of the High Council of Public Health (HCSP) since the start of the crisis.” This Monday, the High Council recommended no longer wearing category 2 fabric masks or homemade masks in the face of the circulation of the British variant of the coronavirus, which is more contagious. The health protocol in companies will therefore be adapted “after, as always, having discussed it with the social partners” said Laurent Pietraszewski.
