The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Center for Disease Control (CDC) have published comprehensive guidelines to ensure cleanliness and safety as Americans reopen businesses, schools, homes, and public spaces.

The instructions walk through how companies should develop, implement, and maintain a plan for cleaning and disinfecting workplaces. It includes an EPA list of disinfectant products that can be used against COVID-19, including ready-to-use sprays, concentrates and wipes, and alternative disinfectants that can be used when EPA-approved disinfectants are unavailable.

The guidelines also cover social distancing practices, ways to reduce the potential for exposure, and links to many other related resources.
