Updated Employee Mask Policy
Good Morning AVC Employees, 

Per Los Angeles County, beginning next week, Tuesday, Jan. 18, 2022, all faculty and staff are required to wear medical-grade or surgical masks, or higher level PPE (e.g. N95 or KN95 respirator) for enhanced protection. A medical-grade or surgical mask is commonly referred to as disposable mask. Employees may no longer wear cloth masks.
Examples of approved medical-grade masks
Medical Mask
N95 Medical Mask
If you do not have a medical-grade or surgical mask, the College will provide one for you as we have been doing since the beginning of the COVID pandemic. You may pick up your mask via your Department Administrative Assistant or Clerical Assistant. If you are unable to reach your Department Administrative Assistant or Clerical Assistant next week due to the many employees working remotely, you may get a mask at the Facilities office between 8am and 5pm from Tuesday, Jan. 18-Thursday, Jan. 20. Please remember that masks are required to be worn indoors by everyone, regardless of vaccination status. 

Thank you,
Antelope Valley College
