We also treat no one differently based on their vaccinated/unvaccinated status. We have 4 employees, including myself. Two are vaccinated, two are not. Our library no longer mandates masks, but anyone is more than welcome to wear them if they would like. </div>

We do require that if anyone is not feeling well that they are not to come to work and if they ever start to feel sick while at work, they are required to notify management immediately. Staff has been informed that if they prefer to wear a mask at any time,
they are welcome to do so and if they prefer to have people keep their distance when being around their workstation, to let people know and everyone is to respect that request. </div>

<div>Hello!</div>
<br>
<div>Now that all the COVID restrictions have been lifted and we only have to follow the (very vague and non-committal) OSHA rules, I was wondering what everyone is doing about unvaccinated staff. Do you make them wear a mask? Do you try to separate them
from the rest of your staff? Or do you let them roam free?</div>
<br>
<div>Thanks for any feedback you can give me,</div>
