UCOP Oakland offices are returning to the “get up, mask up” protocol
This message was sent to all UCOP employees on July 1, 2022.
Dear Oakland-based colleagues,
Alameda County has lifted the requirement for mandatory masking for indoor spaces. Accordingly, effective immediately we will return to our previous “get up, mask up” masking protocol in our Franklin and Broadway offices, as follows:
- Approved masks are required in all meeting rooms and common areas, such as elevators, pathways, offices with more than one person, kitchens, restrooms, etc.
- Masks are not required, but are strongly recommended when you are in your personal office or workstation. Colleagues may use drop-in focus rooms or reserve an office or huddle room to close a door and take a break from masking.
As a reminder, approved masks include KN95, N95, or approved surgical masks (cloth face coverings do not qualify), and masks will continue to be available in both buildings.
Thank you for your continued flexibility and partnership, and please continue to take care of yourself. If you have questions, please email UCOP-COVID19-Response@ucop.edu.
Sincerely,
Thera Kalmijn
Executive Director, UCOP Operations
