CITY OF PORTLAND

COVID-19 City Workplace

Health and Safety Guidance

Updated: December 7, 2020

Issued: September 9, 2020 September 9, 2020

City Employees,

Thank you for your patience throughout this emergency. The City of Portland has provided core services to the residents of Portland from the start of the pandemic and will continue to do so. From park rangers to fleet staff to firefighters, many employees have continued to report to their usual work and field sites, while others have reported to work remotely. When the COVID-19 Policy Team requested that all City employees who could perform their work via telework do so, there were many unknowns. Despite this, we moved quickly and adapted to our new reality to continue providing our community with essential services. It has been 154 days since the Mayor declared a State of Emergency. In that time, we have learned more about the virus, have received guidance on safety protocols, and have adjusted to working during a pandemic without major disruption in services. This is no small accomplishment! This document encapsulates much of what we have learned – from new protocols for interacting with the public, to recommendations regarding teleworking. This Citywide guidance provides guidelines for workplace health and safety during the time of COVID-19. We are taking a cautious approach that puts health and safety first, for both City employees and community members. Directions from the County and the State indicate that we should expect to cycle through phases of relaxing and tightening restrictions based on changing conditions. Our guidance considers how City facilities can adjust as needed. Again, our commitment to you is to prioritize health, safety and community service as we make decisions about work locations going forward. Employee Support We know that all employees have adapted how they work since the start of the State of Emergency. Due to the broad range of types of work, employees need various types of support, ranging from dependent care to transportation to technology and equipment and other assorted needs unique to each employee. City leadership continues to explore and expand the various ways we can support employees during this time. One of the most important ways is our direction to managers and supervisors to be flexible and accommodating with employee’s needs for adaptability in work hours, schedules, and leave. Working from City Facilities City employees report to work at over 35 city facilities, ranging from offices to maintenance buildings to specialty facilities including wastewater treatment plants, training facilities, and logistics centers. These facilities include those owned by the Office of Management and Finance, the Bureau of Environmental Services, the Portland Bureau of Transportation, Portland Parks and Recreation, Portland Fire and Rescue and the Portland Water Bureau, as well as leased space throughout the City.

2 This guidance applies to all of these facilities, with adaptations as needed for specialized facilities. This guidance does not include the needs of facilities such as fire stations or community centers, where unique guidance may be needed. For currently operational facilities, this guidance is intended to amplify and clarify current protocols in place as well as provide adaptability for facilities with specific technical needs that may require additional health and safety guidelines. In March 2021, the COVID-19 Policy Team will revisit public health direction, assess vaccine distribution, and communicate a timeline for when we will begin to allow additional, yet still limited, access to facilities for City staff who have been working remotely or have been unable to perform their work during the pandemic. This is assuming Governor Brown’s orders continue to support this. Our guidance recommends Work Zone occupancy levels for City facilities that fluctuate in response to group limits in each phase of reopening, as defined by the State and advanced by Multnomah County. It will be up to individual City bureaus to determine how they meet occupancy guidelines: who comes back to facilities, what proportion of the time, and how work schedules are staggered. The guidelines also specify a wide range of precautions, from enhanced cleaning to protocols for meetings to face covering requirements. Working Remotely City employees fall into one of three work arrangements. These arrangements will depend on what is appropriate for the employee’s work, the city facility occupancy capacities for health and safety, and bureaus’ business needs. These arrangements are: Primarily Remote Work, Hybrid Remote and Onsite Work, and Primarily Working On-Site. As of August 2020, employees who are able to work remotely are required to do so until further notice from the COVID-19 Policy Team and will be placed into the Primarily Remote Work category. Employees are required to have updated Telework Agreements using the new template which contains information regarding equipment checkout, ergonomic and remote workplace safety. We recognize that change is difficult. The rapid changes we have all been through, coupled with uncertainty about the future, makes these situations even more difficult. This guidance will not be perfect for all situations, nor will our implementation of it. Updates and revisions will be necessary as we learn from implementation and as new science and recommendations are issued by authorities. Thank you for making your best effort as we move forward. We are committed to learning as we go and improving our approach to health and workplace safety on behalf of all employees and all Portlanders.

GUIDANCE OVERVIEW The focus of this document is to provide guidance on how to safely work remotely and across City facilities and improve the working situation for all employees.

The City of Portland never closed. Core Access to City facilities and field sites by City services have continued throughout the public and vendors is limited, and the pandemic – with some employees business with the City of Portland that reporting to work at City facilities and does not need access to facilities or field others working remotely.

EMPLOYEE HEALTH AND SAFETY Section Overview These guidelines are recommended as minimum standards across all job classifications and facility types. The City is providing these guidelines to minimize the exposure risk to COVID-19. However, it cannot guarantee there is no risk to employees. Certain job classifications and specialty and/or technical facilities, such as maintenance and operations facilities, fire stations, and community centers, may require higher levels of protection for staff and the public. Individual bureaus may choose to implement additional guidance accordingly.

Workplace Risks The Oregon Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OR OSHA) issued a Temporary Rule (the Rule) to address COVID-19 Workplace Risks. The Rule’s COVID- 19 Requirements for All Workplaces apply to all City employees and workplaces and are incorporated into this guidance. The Rule’s COVID-19 Requirements for Workplaces at Exceptional Risk apply to the Portland Police Bureau (PPB) and Portland Fire and Rescue (PF&R) Emergency First Responder activities. These requirements are

not included in this guidance; PPB and PF&R shall supplement this guidance with additional guidance to meet the requirements. The Rule requires all bureaus to complete an Exposure Risk Assessment for all workplaces and job activities. If a bureau’s Exposure Risk Assessment finds workplaces and job functions that fall into the Rule’s Workplaces at Exceptional Risk category, that bureau shall supplement this guidance with additional guidance to meet the requirements. Some employees’ potential exposure may put them at a higher risk, based on their individual health, disability, or safety concerns for themselves or a vulnerable member of their household. If an employee, based on safety concerns or health risks, identifies as being in a higher risk category, they should discuss their concerns with their supervisor or Human Resources Business Partner (HRBP) and explore work arrangements that consider their health concerns and their bureau’s operational needs. This could include minimizing contact with others in the workplace or the need for continued, partial or full telework. This guidance is not intended to replace recommendations from a medical provider; it is intended to provide a clear understanding of the minimum standards the City and employees can take to reduce risk.

Employee Support All employees have adjusted how their work is done during this time and there is a wide breadth of support needed for our workforce during the extended State of Emergency. These needs range from dependent care to transportation to technology and other assorted needs unique to each employee. As we have had to quickly adjust to the new realities of the pandemic, we encourage all employees to use the support services provided by the Bureau of Human Resources (BHR). We want employees to feel supported in this time of uncertainty, and to ensure they have access to resources that will bolster their mental health and general well- being. Employees should contact their Human Resources Business Partner or review the resources available on the Bureau of Human Resources Mental Health & Well-being website. Many people are juggling their professional roles, competing responsibilities, and providing support to children learning virtually. Some of the ways the City is providing support are: • The City’s Safety Net Ordinance provides managers and supervisors with additional options to support employees' needs for flexibility regarding hours worked, daily work schedules, and leave. • The Families First Coronavirus Response Act requires certain employers to provide their employees with paid sick leave and expanded family and medical leave for specified reasons related to COVID-19. These provisions will apply from April 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020. BHR guidance and FAQs on this subject can be found here.

9 Common symptoms of COVID-19 include:

• Cough (not from allergies). • Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing. • Body or muscle aches (not from exercise). • Chills. • Headache. • Sore throat. • New loss of taste or smell. • Diarrhea. • Nausea/vomiting. • Fever >100 or feeling feverish.

Workplace Illness and Contact Workplace Contact Tracing Tracing Toolkit Multnomah County is the lead agency for The City’s comprehensive Workplace contact tracing in the Portland metropolitan Illness and Contact Tracing Toolkit region. To assist, all City facilities will webpage includes links to the following: require visitors (including employees accessing a City facility that is not their ‘home’ facility) and vendors to sign-in upon Self-Quarantine Information for City arrival.

If you work from a City facility or the field, you are expected to:

• Take a Self-Assessment Health Survey before coming to work. • Stay home if you are feeling sick. • Stay six feet apart from coworkers or community members. • Wear a face covering. • Wash your hands.

Employees do not need to report their survey results. Employees shall not convey results in writing. This tool is to be used to self-assess their well- being and gauge if they may go to work at a City facility, telework, or make new arrangements. If the employee identifies they have new symptoms that are associated with COVID-19, they shall contact their manager or supervisor, let them know of their findings, and monitor their situation for any changes. This information will be treated confidentially. The health survey is based on generally available information about symptoms and risks for COVID-19. It is not intended to provide medical advice, diagnose or treat a health condition.

The survey is available to bureaus and employees in both electronic and printed forms. If an ADA accommodation or help interacting with this form is needed, employees should contact their bureau’s Human Resources Business Partner.

Face Coverings The City of Portland issued an Updated Face Covering Directive on November 5, 2020.

Face coverings are required for employees, vendors, and visitors, except for children under the age of five, at all times, indoors and outdoors, while conducting work for the City, when inside any City vehicle, and when on Figure 1: Acceptable face coverings City-owned property, including space leased to include a reusable cloth face covering and others, and City-leased space in facilities a disposable face covering. owned by others.

Face coverings are not required while:

• Actively eating and drinking and maintaining a minimum of six feet of distance. • Outdoors, working independently and more than six feet apart. • Alone in a city vehicle that is assigned to one employee for the entire day and all high touch surfaces in the vehicle are sanitized after use in accordance with the Vehicle Guidance requirements and the vehicle will sit for a minimum of eight hours before anyone else enters the vehicle. • During activities where it is unfeasible such as swimming. • As permitted by OR OSHA and the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) for First Responders in specific emergency response circumstances.

In some City facilities, or in the field, and with certain types of work, conventional and approved personal protective equipment (PPE) may be required. Face coverings are not to be used as a replacement for conventional and approved PPE. In those instances, City employees and contractors are expected to wear the PPE required to perform the work.

Limit Movement When working in a City facility or in the field, employees are encouraged to stay within their Work Zone to minimize exposure.

Bureaus shall take measures to have consistent workgroups in all settings (i.e., shift consistency, limited movement between work area where possible) to minimize exposure.

Employee Cleaning Expectations in Individual Workspaces and Common Areas Employees are responsible for cleaning and sanitizing individual workspaces at the end of their shift and high touch surfaces in common areas and meeting spaces before and after use. Facility Managers are responsible for ensuring cleaning and sanitizing supplies are available for employee use. Facility Manager facility cleaning requirements can be found on page 36.

Bureaus must provide employees with the supplies and reasonable time necessary to clean or sanitize more frequently than would otherwise be required if the worker chooses to do so.

Employees are discouraged from using other phones, desks, offices, or other work tools and equipment when possible. Employees should not assume a high touch surface has been adequately cleaned prior to touching it themselves and shall clean and sanitize high touch surfaces before and after use to support disinfecting efforts around City facilities and in the field.

When using meeting spaces, employees are encouraged to bring their own markers and supplies as needed or sanitize supplies in the space before and after use as well. If a City vehicle is utilized, employees are required to clean and sanitize high touch surfaces in the vehicle at the end of the use period.

City Property and Public Records Responsibility

If an employee has removed city property (computers, chairs, records, etc.) in order to continue work remotely it is the employee’s responsibility to safeguard these city assets from loss, damage, or inappropriate use. HRAR 4.09 Use of City Resources has rules on the appropriate and inappropriate use of these resources. If city property is damaged or destroyed, the employee responsible for the city property will need to report the damage to their manager or supervisor. Damage to city records needs to be reported promptly to Archives and Records Management in order to document the loss.

Employees can take the following measures to help keep city records safe: • Hard copy records: keep files, maps, and other documents safe from water, fire, food, and pests. • Confidential records: keep all sensitive records safe from being viewed or otherwise accessed by people who do not have the authority to view them. • Electronic records: keep all electronic records on city shared drives or within other approved city systems. Do not store official files on personal hard drives, or removeable media (e.g. thumb drives, flash drives). Read the General Guidance for Telecommuting for more information.

VISITOR AND VENDOR ACCESS

Section Overview This guidance pertains to public access to City of Portland work facilities. Bureaus with predominantly public-facing facilities may issue specific guidance for their operations and facilities. Public access to City facilities will be limited and adjusted as the State moves in and out of re-opening phases. Public business with the City of Portland that does not need access to facilities is recommended to be conducted remotely and/or outside. When such business cannot be done remotely, the following procedures are required for visitors to access a City facility or field site.

Visitor access will be by appointment only. Visitors will be required to:

• Wear a face covering, or to request an ADA accommodation. • Take a self-assessment health survey (linked). • Stay home if you are feeling sick. • Sign in.

Vendor and Contractor Access Business with vendors that do not need access to facilities is recommended to be conducted remotely and/or outside. Vendors and contractors are those hired by the City of Portland to provide goods and services, to perform public improvements and construction services and to perform professional services as defined in the Procurement Codes and Policies.

When such business cannot be done remotely, all vendors and contractors conducting business at a City facility or field site will be expected to follow the Employee guidelines on page 11 and the COVID-19 Transmission and Prevention Guidelines for Contractors guidelines. Bureaus shall provide this document to vendors and contractors at least 24 hours prior to an appointment or expected arrival of a vendor. Vendors that provide reoccurring, expected services can coordinate with a specific bureau regarding appointment expectations.

FACILITY OVERVIEW

Section Overview This section directs Facility Managers and tenants to modify occupancy limits based on the respective State phase of re-opening for Multnomah County. This guidance does not apply to predominately public-facing facilities such as community centers, where the most applicable State of Oregon reopening guidance takes precedence.

Facility Managers for property-owning or leasing bureaus are responsible for implementing the following guidelines at their facilities. This includes facilities owned or leased by the Office of Management and Finance, the Bureau of Environmental Services, Portland Fire and Rescue, the Portland Bureau of Transportation, Portland Parks and Recreation, and the Portland Water Bureau. Bureaus may issue additional guidance specific to their operations and facilities.

Defined Work Zones will be established within City facilities and within each Work Zone there will be maximum occupancy limits.

24

Bureaus also lease spaces owned and operated by external entities and rent public spaces for public events. In these locations, this guidance applies only to bureaus leased and rented space. However, it is understood that bureaus, as tenants, will need to meet the rules and guidance of the private property owner and property manager, and it is recommended that the bureau defer to the prescribed guidance of public and shared spaces. OMF Facilities Services is available to assist bureaus with determining how to apply this guidance to bureau tenant spaces.

Therefore, the broad term “Facility Manager” is used to indicate the bureau/office/person responsible for operationally managing and making decisions for that City facility.

Additionally, the “Tenant” is the bureau/office which occupies that site for their work and their employees, and “Occupants” are the individuals who work at each of the sites. Each group has distinct roles and responsibilities in implementing and carrying out the guidance.

State Sector Risk Levels and City Facilities

A new risk-based framework for county-by-county COVID-19 restrictions in Oregon took effect December 3rd. The approach replaces the three-phase system for restrictions introduced earlier this year with a four-level risk sector guidance. The State has also issued General Workplace Safety guidance. Facility Managers will use the risk-based framework, the state’s general workplace safety guidance, applicable sector guidance, and the OR OSHA Temporary Rule to determine occupancy limits for city facilities. Occupancy limits will consider the specific facility configuration and the ability to configure workspaces and common areas to maintain a physical distance of at least six feet. Occupancy limits do not preclude the City of Portland COVID-19 Policy team direction requiring employees that can work remotely to continue to work remotely until further notice.

Work Zones

Facility Managers will utilize Work Zones in City Facilities. Work Zones are comprised of the areas within a site, campus, building, or facility a typical employee will occupy during the workday (i.e. an employee will spend time at their desk, the restrooms, in break spaces, and the printer area throughout the workday). Work Zones will have defined employee limits; all people within that Work Zone must be included in the occupancy count for that Zone. This could be determined to include a separate suite within a building, an entire floor, or an entire building. Facility Managers and bureau tenants may want to consider temporary support spaces, such as meeting rooms, within each Work Zone to provide flexibility in occupancy limits.

The occupancy limits within each Work Zone will adjust to stay in accordance with State limitations at any given time. Facility Manages and Tenants will collaborate on Work Zones as applicable for each City facility.

25

Occupancy Limits and Shift Considerations If higher occupant loads are necessary in a facility, it is recommended that each facility consider work shifts to address this need while still limiting potential exposure. Shift alternatives that limit exposure and reduce cleaning within a Work Zone include:

• Shifts to rotate into sites on a weekly basis. Up to four shifts in each Work Zone (i.e. shift 1 would be assigned the first week of each month, shift 2 the second week of the month, and so on.) • Staff to rotate into sites daily. Up to five shifts in each Work Zone. (i.e. shift 1 would always report on Mondays, shift 2 on Tuesdays, and so on).

It is not recommended to have overlapping shifts or multiple shifts within a day unless necessary for work function (i.e. sites that are open 24 hours typically).

It is not recommended to have overlapping shifts or multiple shifts within a day unless necessary for work function (i.e. sites that are open 24 hours typically).

26

ACCESS REQUIREMENTS Tenants are to manage the access of their employees and ensure this access is being appropriately limited. Due to limitations of access card systems and ability for Tenants to control them, it is not feasible to manage access by that means alone.

Entry and Exit Door Expectations The Facility Manager shall limit the points of entrance to each City facility to help manage contact tracing needs, taking into account ADA accessibility requirements and access to bike parking. Prior to entering, all Occupants must wear a face covering that covers the nose and mouth and fits snugly (see page 23 for details on accommodations).

The Facility Manager is expected to coordinate how to provide face coverings for visitors or occupants that do not have a face covering. For facilities with Security, the Facility Manager shall coordinate logistics, supplies, and expectations for the Security team regarding access requirements including access points for visitors, sign-in procedures, face coverings and accommodations, and health surveys. For facilities without Security, the Facility Manager shall coordinate these requirements.

Sign-in Procedures To assist with contact tracing, all City facilities will require visitors (including employees accessing a City facility that is not their ‘home’ facility) and vendors to sign-in upon arrival.

27

The Facility Manager will ensure a plan is in place at each entry and exit door to capture sign-in and sign-out by visitors and vendors. All sign-in materials and sanitation supplies will be provided by the Facility Manager. Sign-in documents will be retained by the Facility Manager for 30 days. At a minimum, information at sign-in will include:

• Name. • Phone or email. • If a Visitor, the name of the City employee responsible for the meeting. • If a Vendor, the Work Zone the vendor is visiting. • Self-Assessment Health Survey completion (yes or no). If a Self- Assessment Health Survey was not completed prior to arrival, a printed copy will be provided for review.

Facility Signage Facility Managers will post, at a minimum, face covering signage in locations where face coverings are required and the Oregon OSHA “COVID-19 Hazards Poster” in a central, conspicuous area at each facility. A collection of City facilities signage is available for use by facility managers.

Hand Washing Stations Facility Managers will provide hand washing stations in every facility or field site and at least one hand washing station per Work Zone. In buildings, existing sinks in common areas such as restrooms and breakrooms meet this expectation. When it is not possible to provide a hand washing station, employees will be provided hand sanitizer to allow for frequent disinfecting throughout the workday. For field sites, hand washing stations or hand sanitizer shall be provided.

Building Movement While moving throughout a building/site, a face covering must always be worn. Physical distance of six feet will be maintained to the greatest extent possible between all Occupants unless an exception has been granted based on specific work requirements or ADA accommodation. The preference is to eliminate obstacles and maintain the six feet distance with current facility configurations.

Lobbies The Facility Manager shall provide directional signage to guide Occupants from entrances to appropriate Work Zones safely with minimal points of passing one another. Lobby signs will identify designated queuing spaces for wait areas. Lobbies will be supplied with hand sanitizer at primary points of frequent contact (i.e. near doors, elevator buttons, etc.). Interior doors should be propped open where allowed by code (i.e. stairwell doors, interior vestibule doors, etc.). If buildings are open to the public, signage will be provided in Braille or designated staff will assist a visitor who has no or

themselves. Occupants are responsible for cleaning and sanitizing high touch surfaces in shared spaces before/after use and are encouraged to bring their own markers and supplies as needed or sanitize before and after use as well. The Facility Manager is responsible for providing cleaning supplies and posting signage regarding cleaning expectations.

Work Zones Each Work Zone will be defined by the Facility Manager. Occupants will only access their Work Zone and not travel to other Work Zones or buildings throughout the day. Some Work Zones will remain closed until further notice and are not being fully serviced.

Individual Workspaces Tenants must determine which specific individual workspaces will be occupied during each shift.

Occupants shall spend most of the time at work in their individual workspaces to limit contact with others. Tenants will locate Occupants in a way that a minimum of six feet of distance can be maintained while occupying and moving within the individual workspace. This will likely mean skipping one or two workspaces between Occupants.

Occupants are responsible for sanitizing individual workspaces at the end of each shift. It is not recommended that workspaces be shared between Occupants; however, if shared, Occupants can choose to sanitize workspaces at the beginning of a shift.

Work Zone Common Areas Face coverings must be worn in all common areas to protect those around you. Occupants shall always take care to monitor their movement and the movement of others to maintain a minimum of six feet of distance. The Facility Manager will post signage indicating maximum occupancy of each space but will also expect Occupants to follow the signage and regulate themselves. Tenants are encouraged to monitor and remind Occupants of this as needed.

• Restrooms: Doors will be propped open where feasible. Where not, tissues or a foot lever will be provided by the Facility Manager to limit contact points upon exiting. Where more than one sink or urinal exist within a row, Facility Managers will post signage indicating how many may be used at one time or designate some closed. Additionally, toilet stalls will be designated to provide distancing even with partitions between them. Facility Managers shall ensure regular cleaning and flushing of closed stalls is included in janitorial contracts.

• Conference and Meeting Rooms: Where meetings must occur, limit them to meetings with others in your zone and continue to have virtual meetings with those in other Work Zones. Only use conference rooms within your Work Zone. Keep doors propped open unless confidentiality is necessary.

30

o Facility Managers must provide cleaning supplies in all meeting spaces for Occupant use. o Occupants are responsible for cleaning and sanitizing their areas before and after each meeting. It is recommended that Tenants provide their own supplies as needed for whiteboards or sanitize prior to use. Take care in sanitizing equipment such as shared keyboards and mice so as not to damage the equipment: spray the cloth first, then wipe. Do not spray the equipment directly. o Tenants will provide signage on meeting room doors within their Work Zone(s) indicating maximum occupancy. While Occupants are expected to self-regulate themselves to ensure the spacing stays six feet apart, tenants should consider clearly indicating spacing standards by removing chairs and/or signing chairs for use/not use. The Facility Manager may be able to assist Tenants with signage if needed. o Some meeting rooms will need to be closed if adequate spacing cannot be provided.

• Kitchen, Break and Gathering Spaces: Kitchen and break rooms will remain open for Occupant convenience within the designated Work Zones. Larger shared spaces across Work Zones will be closed until further notice. o Occupants must regulate access among themselves to limit the number in use at a time. o Facility Managers will provide cleaning supplies to clean and sanitize high touch surfaces such as refrigerator, microwave, sink handles, etc. after each use. o Occupants are responsible for cleaning and sanitizing equipment and counters after each use. o Seating areas may remain open, but Occupants must regulate spacing to maintain six feet of physical distancing. The Facility Manager or Tenant may place signage indicating maximum number of people in each area as appropriate and space and resources allow. Occupants must clean table and chairs before and after use. o Some small appliances that provide multiple points of contact by more than one employee may need to be taken out of use.

• Print and Mail Rooms: Print and mail rooms shall remain open. The Facility Manager will provide cleaning supplies and prop open doors where allowed by code, and maximum occupancy signage. Occupants must clean and sanitize high touch surfaces after each use and monitor occupancy to ensure physical distancing remains. Typically mail and print rooms will only be able to have one to two occupants at a time, depending on the space. In some facilities, relocating printers and materials into larger open spaces could be an option. Each Work Zone will coordinate a way to deliver mail to Occupants that does not require crossing into multiple Work Zones.

• Wellness and Lactation Rooms: Wellness and lactation rooms will continue to be managed and maintained. They are often not located or designated to a single zone and may require Occupants to travel to another Work Zone. These spaces shall be

32

• Work activities and workflow are designed to eliminate the need for any employee to be within six feet of another individual in order to fulfill their job duties unless the employer determines and can demonstrate that such physical distancing is not feasible for certain activities. (3)(a)(A) • When employees are transported in a vehicle for work purposes, regardless of the travel distance or duration involved, all occupants in the vehicle must wear a mask, face covering, or face shield unless employees are wearing respirators in accordance with the Respiratory Protection Standard (29 CFR 1910.134). (3)(b)(D) Please note that the City’s Face Covering Directive does not allow for face shields to be worn alone. Respirators should only be worn if your bureau has a Respiratory Protection Program and the respirator is being worn as PPE.

Based on the OR OSHA Temporary Rule Addressing COVID-19 Workplace Risks, the City’s November 5, 2020 Face Covering Directive, and best practices, the following recommendations are provided for bureaus:

• Bureaus should assess vehicle use to determine feasibility of six feet of separation between employees in vehicles. Bureaus should consider options to ensure six feet of physical distancing between employees in vehicles and limiting vehicle occupancy. • Bureaus should identify maximum vehicle capacity for each vehicle. • Bureaus should note circumstances when all employees in a vehicle will be wearing a respirator. • All vehicle occupants must wear face coverings. The only exception is when an employee is alone in a vehicle that is assigned to one employee for the entire day and all high touch surfaces in the vehicle are sanitized after use and the vehicle will sit for a minimum of eight hours before anyone else enters the vehicle. • Bureaus should keep a log of employees who use or occupy each vehicle for contact tracing purposes. • Bureaus should also have vehicle cleaning and sanitization procedures in place that follow the OR OSHA and CDC guidelines. The OR OSHA requires cleaning and disinfection for shared equipment (work vehicles) and high touch surfaces (steering wheels). Clean or sanitize vehicles with a focus on high touch surfaces (steering wheels, door handles, vehicle controls, etc.) at least every eight hours while in use; this would typically mean before and after use and/or before and after each work shift. Note: OMF City Fleet has procedures in place for sanitizing vehicles between users and before returning vehicles to service and requires employees to sanitize all frequently touched surfaces in each Fleet vehicle before and after use.

Health and Safety Assessment Expectations City Facility Managers are expected to address air circulation and filtration, water systems, and safety plans in each facility. It should be noted that for the duration of the State of Emergency, where health and safety of employees and visitors to City facilities will be prioritized, sustainability goals regarding building systems may be a challenge to

Site Response in Case of COVID-19 After a potential exposure in the workplace to a positive COVID-19 case, the Bureau Director (or delegate) and Facility Manager will act upon the options identified in the Illness in the Workplace Guidelines and Workflow, which includes the requirements of the OR OSHA Temporary Rule.

Supply Logistics The Facility Manager will coordinate the procurement of cleaning supplies and equipment needed to implement the Facility guidance requirements. Bureaus are responsible for other supplies and materials, such as face coverings. Facility Managers should collaborate citywide to identify supplies and equipment that are needed across bureaus so the City can explore the potential for a Citywide procurement of supplies and equipment. The COVID-19 Citywide Guidance Workgroup can assist with this collaboration. The BRFS Procurement Services Division and the ECC Logistics Section may also be able to assist with coordination of bulk product purchases.

ECC Logistics Collaboration The ECC Logistics Section has facilitated the procurement and distribution of critical supplies, equipment, and personnel to all City bureaus/offices since the start of the State of Emergency. This included cleaning supplies, Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), and equipment needed for facilities to implement health and safety guidelines such as physical barriers to promote physical distancing.

Going forward, per the ECC’s June 25, 2020 memo, all bureaus shall first seek to acquire supplies and equipment themselves. The ECC maintains a list of vendors for various items that can be provided to all bureaus/offices upon request. If a bureau is unable to acquire an item, the ECC Logistics Section may be able to assist with procurement, if staffing and resources allow.

Bureaus and offices are not required to request resources through the ECC in order to use incident specific cost centers. All bureaus and offices should use COVID-19 cost centers when procuring COVID-19 related supplies and equipment and follow the federal procurement guidance that was sent to bureaus from the ECC Finance Section.

Change Management and Training Since March 2020, employees have adjusted the way they work remotely or in City facilities. With the issuance of the guidance and the extended duration of the State of Emergency, additional adjustments are expected. Trainings on this guidance and the new ways of working are important for employees to further adjust to working during a pandemic. Trainings will fall into four categories: leadership, implementation partners, managers and supervisors, and all employees.

Leadership • Townhall: Opportunities for employees to hear from the COVID-19 Policy Team on the official direction on the guidance, and for the COVID-19 Policy Team to collect feedback from employees on the guidance and their work experiences over the past few months. Townhalls were held on September 30, October 5, and October 30, 2020. • Workshop: A facilitated Bureau Director focused workshop to review the guidance, convey roles, expectations and agreements on accountability and share perspectives and concerns. This workshop was held on September 17, 2020.

Implementation Partners • Human Resource Business Partner (HRBP) trainings: The guidance relies on bureau HRBPs for assistance with accommodations, compliance and trainings. HRBPs will be trained on the guidance and expectations for employees, managers, and supervisors. HRBPs will work with Bureau Directors to develop an implementation strategy for their bureau and will work with managers and supervisors to reinforce the strategy with their employees. • Facility Manager Workshop: This will be an opportunity to collaboratively test cleaning and behavioral protocols in partnership with the OMF Facilities pilot. The group will discuss what is working in facilities that are currently operational and identify guidance adjustments that are needed.

Implementation With the issuance of the guidance, and While each bureau can procure signage, the extended timeline for employees equipment, and supplies on their own, Facility Managers are encouraged to working remotely, the facility protocols work collaboratively with the COVID-19 will be implemented in stages, with priority implementation in City facilities

40

Citywide Guidance Workgroup to identify and coordinate signage, equipment and supplies needed for implementation. BRFS Procurement Services Division and the ECC Logistics Section may be also be engaged in this effort.

Facilities Currently Restricting Access Facilities currently restricting access will continue to do so until further notice from the COVID-19 Policy Team. In March 2021, the team expects to communicate a timeline for when the City will begin to allow additional, yet still limited, access to City facilities.

During this time, Facility Managers will prepare these facilities for increased access. This will include the following:

• Preparation, Procurement, and Logistics: Facility Managers will work collaboratively with the COVID-19 Citywide Guidance Workgroup to identify and coordinate the signage, equipment and supplies needed for implementation of the protocols, in anticipation of future increased access to facilities. BRFS Procurement Services and the ECC Logistics Section may be also be engaged in this effort. • Work Zones: Facility Managers will work collaboratively with their bureau tenants to determine Work Zones and occupancy limits in preparation for future increased, but still limited, access. • OMF Pilot: OMF Facilities will pilot the following guidelines:

o 1900 Building (2nd floor): This location was selected as it is a facility that is

41

currently restricting access; has a mixture of employees and public Work Zone spaces; and the primary tenant, BDS, has implemented interim protocols which can be adapted to the guidelines. Focus of the pilot will include, but is not limited to, elevator capacity restrictions, janitorial service, employee self-service of janitorial supplies after meetings and use of common areas, sanitation stations, signage and wayfinding, and the establishment of designated Work Zones. o Portland Police Bureau (PPB) Facilities: OMF Facilities will also work with the Police Bureau to implement the guidelines across relevant PPB facilities. These sites were selected as there are immediate needs for additional cleaning protocols and all PPB sites have continued to remain operational. o Non-Bureau Specific Work Zone Space: With the extended timeline for working remotely, OMF Facilities will initiate a Non- Bureau Specific Work Zone space in one of OMF’s downtown locations. The purpose of this space is to provide an alternative location for those employees whose remote work sites are not ideal and cannot work remotely or in a facility.

• Print Room Alternative: This could also include a drop-in print and mail room for employees working remotely that won’t require employees to go to a Work Zone. • Large Meeting Room: At the Portland Building, OMF Facilities will initiate a large meeting room pilot that will allow bureaus, divisions, and teams, to gather for a short period of time on an infrequent basis. Groups will be limited to comply with the State’s indoor gathering restrictions and to follow the guidelines outlined in this document. • Facility Owning Bureaus: Facility owning bureaus may choose to pilot the guidelines in their facilities during this time.

Updated Guidance Modifications, additions, and updates to the guidelines will be made based on input and feedback from implementation of the guidelines at currently operational facilities, the OMF Pilot, and any updated recommendations and directives from the CDC, OR OSHA, the State and Multnomah County. Modifications will be communicated to the Facility Managers for implementation across their respective facilities. Updated guidance materials will be distributed to all employees.

Citywide Facility Limited Access Implementation In March 2021, the COVID-19 Policy Team will revisit public health direction, assess vaccine distribution, and communicate a timeline for when we will begin to allow additional, yet still limited, access to facilities for City staff who have been working remotely or have been unable to perform their work during the pandemic.

Phase 2 - Long Range Planning In 2013, City Council passed Resolution 37017 directing bureaus to maximize investment in City owned facilities by maintaining full occupancy and minimize the use of leased space unless the bureau’s needs cannot be reasonably met. To support this resolution, and in recognition of the change in where and how people work, OMF will:

42

• Work collaboratively to identify bureaus or divisions that may be able to relocate from out-lease spaces expiring between now and the end of 2021, to City-owned spaces where possible. An exception process will be implemented for bureaus unable to comply with the Resolution. • Engage a broker to begin negotiations with landlords in longer term lease locations about the possibility of finding new tenants to take over those leases. • Query bureaus in existing OMF-owned buildings whether they will reduce their footprint thereby allowing others to relocate into City-owned spaces and/or convert some locations to hoteling spaces.

In FY 2021-22, informed by the implementation of extended teleworking and the transition from leased to owned space, the Long Range Facilities Master Plan project will revisit bureau space needs and the City’s facility portfolio, and determine an updated approach to the City’s long-term facility needs. This may include consolidating space, multi-bureau partnerships on similar facility needs, and disinvestment in property no longer needed to meet core services or service levels.
