Current information regarding PPE in TV/Film Studio setting:
Face Coverings
● Employees will wear face covering in enclosed/confined spaces whenever possible to protect against the
virus.
Gloves
● Gloves are not effective in preventing the coronavirus infection. Regularly washing bare hands offers
more protection against catching COVID-19 than wearing them.
