COVID-19 and the steps Baywood Interior Millwork is taking.
The COVID-19 issue remains critical and is changing day by day.
We continue to monitor the situation to develop the best
contingency plan for Baywood’s employees, customers, and suppliers.
In that regard, here is what we are currently doing:
Personal Health & Safety Guidelines
- Hand washing remains the best defence against contracting the disease.
- Use hand sanitizer.
- Follow “Social Distancing” protocols.
- Use the proper PPE.
- Avoid physical contact and gathering in groups.
- Reduce in-person meetings with both internal and external people.
- Prop doors open to avoid having to touch handles.
- Monitor your own status in terms of symptoms.
If you experience symptoms or if you believe you have been exposed,
begin the self-isolation process, seek testing, and communicate your status.

We are following the travel restrictions put in place by the Federal Government.
For those returning from an out-of-country travel, please follow the self-isolation

Coverage for Absences
Our goal is to continue with normal operations as long

There is significant misinformation being communicated, and the best remedy
for this is to ensure your source is proven and reliable.
