DHHS is renewing its workplace face-covering guidance and implementing the Interim Policy on Face Coverings Requirements. Effective immediately, all employees, contractors, students, temporary staff, or volunteers, within a state government office, building, or facility, must wear an appropriate face-covering regardless of their vaccination status unless exempt due to a qualifying reason such as a disability or any other lawful reason.
North Carolina will require vaccine verification for State Employees and has adjusted mask guidance to align with the CDC’s new guidelines.
Cases are increasing, especially amongst unvaccinated persons and vaccination is essential to stopping the spread. Constituents looking for vaccines can use the Find a Vaccine Location tool at myspot.nc.gov or call (888) 675-4567.
