COVID-19 Prevention Guidelines for SCUBA Diving Operations
The COVID-19 Prevention Guidelines for SCUBA Diving Operations guidelines were developed to help ensure the health and safety of personnel conducting scuba diving by reducing the potential for COVID-19 transmission. All University employees and students engaged in scuba diving are expected to adhere to the most current and up-to date University of Washington, local, state, and CDC guidelines prior to commencing field operations.

Working Alone Safely Focus Sheet
Working alone applies to work or study occurring when no other person is in direct line of sight or within hearing range of the person working. A person may work alone in a lab, office, shop or other University location, or in the field. Working alone can take place during normal working hours, as well as on evenings and weekends.
Use the Working Alone Safely Focus Sheet as a guide for pre-task planning to identify and assess the risks and safety measures needed.
