  • Considerations for COVID-19 Safe Studio Reopening
    CONSIDERATIONS FOR RECORDING STUDIOS AS THEY REOPEN Dear Friends and Colleagues, As businesses around the country consider how to proceed with plans for partial and staggered reopenings, we understand that they are feeling a deep sense of responsibility and trepidation. Directives for opening are, of course, on a state-by-state and city-by-city basis. In the meantime, we have spoken with numerous recording studio owners, engineers and others around the country. Based on their suggested protocols, we’ve compiled a list of potential safety measures. The Producers & Engineers Wing®, like its membership, is resilient. The Wing has been a resource for the recording community for nearly 20 years, and will continue its work with you long after this crisis has passed. We hope this information is helpful, and wish you and your loved ones good health and safety as we navigate this crisis. Knowledge about the COVID-19 pandemic is constantly evolving, and, as always, we are open to, and grateful for, comments and suggestions from others in our recording community, so please feel free to contact us at [email protected]. In addition to the guidelines below, we suggest you regularly consult national, state and local government agency guidance, including from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The CDC’s guidance for businesses and employers is available at: www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/ community/organizations/businesses-employers.html. As this situation evolves we welcome your feedback so please stay in touch. Be well, Maureen Droney Sr. Managing Director, Producers & Engineers Wing – Recording Technology www.grammy.com/studioreopening As a disclaimer, the considerations listed here are not intended to be, and shall not be construed to be, legal or medical advice or an offer to provide legal services.
