Do not go to the lab if you are exhibiting any symptoms of COVID-19, are feeling unwell, or are otherwise at a high risk level as indicated by the self-assessment tool.

Wear a non-vented mask covering your mouth and nose inside the lab, you are protecting yourself and others around you
If you want to use a vented respirator, you must cover the vent with another mask to prevent spread of exhausted particles
Mask may be temporarily removed to drink/eat while maintaining social distance from other people
Members should try to bring their own masks and any other desired protective gear
There are masks available in the kitchen next to the first aid kit, pay what you can into the donation box
If the mask supply runs out and you are not able to restock it, notify operations@hacklab.to

Wash your hands with soap and use disposable paper towels to dry them. Do not use towels.
Disinfect all tools before and after use, 70% alcohol and paper towels available in all common areas
If any cleaning supplies run out and you are not able to restock them, notify operations@hacklab.to

Do not use the VR rig
Be extra thorough disinfecting face-contact PPE like safety goggles, ear muffs and face shields before and after use
Prefer to bring your own PPE if possible instead of using shared items
Prefer to use disposable earplugs instead of ear muffs

If you are diagnosed or suspected of having COVID-19, contact board@hacklab.to
The membership will be notified of the danger and the lab locked down until it can be sanitized
The booking schedule and door entry card records will be used for contact tracing
