District Supplied Masks

This week your department will receive an initial supply of surgical masks, KN95 masks and N95 masks.

It is important to note that employees who wish to use an N95 mask are required to take the following steps before using an N95 mask:

Read the CDC training documents on how to properly wear an N95 mask. Put on and Check Disposable Respirator
Read and sign the Voluntary Use Agreement. Information for Voluntary Respirator Use
Submit the signed Voluntary Use Agreement to ariass_glaurys@smc.edu in Risk Management

Employees who wish to use surgical masks or KN95 masks do not need to follow this process and can immediately use those products without taking additional steps.
