Guidance for Visitors to the Frances Perkins Building

The U.S. Department of Labor and its employees have continued to fulfill its mission during the COVID-19 pandemic. For your safety and the safety of DOL employees and contractors, please review the policies in the DOL COVID-19 Workplace Safety Plan.

Before coming to the FPB, all visitors should conduct a health screening at home which includes considering the following questions:
- Do you currently have a fever or chills, or other new or unexplained symptoms consistent with COVID-19 such as new or unexplained onset of cough, shortness of breath, or difficulty breathing, new or unexplained loss of taste or smell, or new or unexplained muscle aches?
- Have you received a positive COVID-19 test or been diagnosed with COVID-19 within the past 6 days (and have not yet completed isolation in accordance with CDC guidelines)?
In accordance with the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC), Safer Federal Workforce Task Force guidance, all Federal employees, onsite contractors, and visitors to DOL facilities, must wear high quality masks or respirators inside DOL facilities in areas of high COVID-19 Hospital Admission Levels, when required by local mask mandates, after isolation, or after being exposed. Please visit the CDC COVID-19 County Check page for mask-wearing requirements by County location. Individuals entering DOL facilities to obtain a public service or benefit (e.g., visiting the FPB Post Office, the Credit Union, or Child Development Center) must follow required COVID-19 safety protocols when accessing the FPB, including as it relates to mask wearing when COVID-19 Hospital Admission Levels are high.
When COVID-19 Hospital Admission Levels are Medium or High, individuals should consider increasing space and distance, and avoiding crowding from others in indoor common areas, and meeting rooms.

Visitors to the FPB share in the responsibility to keep our employees and stakeholders healthy by taking these measures to mitigate the potential spread of COVID-19. We appreciate your cooperation.
