ST. CHARLES COUNTY, MO – The St. Charles County Department of Public Health today released COVID-19 guidelines for employers in conjunction with County Executive Steve Ehlmann’s announcement this week that the county would follow the Governor’s “Show Me Strong Recovery” Plan. The plan is the first phase of Missouri’s gradual reopening of economic and social activity which begins on Monday, May 4.
“These guidelines give businesses, churches, schools and other employers resources for information we feel is necessary before people start returning to work and social activities,” says Director of St. Charles County Department of Public Health Demetrius Cianci-Chapman. “We know there are many questions about how to safely resume normal activities and we want to provide as much guidance as we can.”
The guidelines can be found on the County’s website at sccmo.org/COVID.
