What if my business is not considered an essential business? Does this Order require that I shut down my business facility?

You and your employees are allowed to perform “Minimum Basic Operations” on site at your work place, so long as employees maintain a distance of six feet from one another to the greatest extent feasible.

Minimum Basic Operations include:

• The minimum necessary activities to maintain the value of the business’s inventory, ensure security, or for related functions.
• The minimum necessary activities to facilitate employees of the business being able to continue to work remotely from their residences.

Your employees can also work from home if their jobs are ones that can be performed remotely.
