Who provides masks for work during the epidemic? What if I don't wear a mask during the epidemic?

As we all know, due to the influence of novel coronavirus, people wear masks at work, which can prevent virus infection to a certain extent and play a certain protective role. Masks are in short supply and difficult to buy. So who will provide masks for work during the epidemic? Let's take a closer look!

Most companies will provide masks for employees during the epidemic, but some companies can negotiate with employees. If you can't buy enough masks, it is recommended to work at home.

The requirements of national epidemic prevention and control are very clear, masks must be distributed, and epidemic prevention must be done well in the work. Talk it over with the boss. Maybe a few will do. Many large enterprises, such as BYD, Foxconn, SAIC-GM-Wuling, China Petrochemical, etc. The mask problem is solved by self-production and self-sale, and it can also be supplied to the society by the way. It is said that by the end of February, Foxconn's mask production will exceed 2 million, and Wuling Automobile's daily output will reach 6.5438+0.7 million. I believe it is impossible not to give you a mask as long as the unit lets us go to work. Really not, masks can also be saved and used. After all, experts have said that disposable masks can be reused under appropriate circumstances.

On February 1 1, 2020, the State Council held a press conference on the joint prevention and control mechanism in novel coronavirus. Liang Cong, member of the Party Committee and Secretary-General of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that enterprises should equip employees with disinfectant, thermometer and other materials, and distribute protective equipment such as masks to effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of employees. Wages for non-vacation should be guaranteed in accordance with relevant policies.

However, enterprises really can't buy enough epidemic prevention materials. Employees can negotiate the time and place of work with the employer first, and should not refuse to go to work to solve the problem.

According to Article 42 of China's "Safety Production Law", production and business units must provide employees with labor protection articles that meet national standards or industry standards, and supervise and educate employees to wear and use them according to the rules of use.

Therefore, enterprises need to be equipped with disinfectants, warm guns and other materials, and distribute protective equipment such as masks to employees. But if you can't buy enough epidemic prevention materials, employees can't refuse to go to work on the grounds that the unit doesn't provide masks.

What should I do if I don't wear a mask at work during the epidemic? 1. I don't need to wear a mask in a place where the epidemic is mild and in a well-ventilated office. For general enterprises, masks are not labor protection articles that units must provide. Some places stipulate that you can not wear a mask in the office. For example, the Guangdong Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention's guide to the use of masks: well-ventilated offices do not need to wear masks.

2. If a person can work without a mask, and there are dust and poisons in the workplace, it is necessary to consider the prevention and control of COVID-19 and the harmful factors he is exposed to, and pay attention to whether the protective efficiency and sealing performance of the mask meet the requirements. In the workplace, one person can work without wearing a mask, but many people suggest wearing a mask when working.

The country and the whole society are actively trying to find ways to alleviate the shortage of masks.

③ Some websites sell masks in limited quantities.

The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) said that as long as "its structural and functional integrity is maintained and the filter material is not physically damaged or polluted", the service life of the mask can be extended or reused. A key consideration for safety and long-term use is the air tightness and functionality of the mask. Extended use is safer than repeated use.

There is no need to disinfect the mask before reuse, because disinfection of the mask may destroy its "structural and functional integrity". However, when putting on and taking off the mask, you must wash your hands first to avoid the pollution of the mask by your hands, because the main risk of mask pollution is your hands, not the air. It is reported that the medical N95 mask can be reused up to five times. The mask should be stored between uses to avoid damage or deformation, and naturally dry or dry the water inside to prevent the accumulation of flora on the surface.

Tips for prolonging the use time of masks The former president of the Hong Kong Medical Association shared an envelope extension method:

① Prepare a clean and brand-new envelope.

② Be careful when removing the mask, and don't touch the outside of the mask.

③ Don't fold the mask in half, pull the rubber band and put the whole mask in the envelope.

④ When taking out, pull the rubber band of the mask to take it out. Don't touch the surface of the mask.

⑤ Throw away the envelope and don't reuse it.

The envelope can absorb the moisture on the mask. The key point of the envelope extension method is: don't fold the mask when it is put into the envelope, because it will cross-infect the inside and outside of the mask and lose its protective effect. Remember to wash your hands when you put on and take off your mask.
