Effective January 15, 2021, MMUA has revised its policy regarding in-person training. The revision was made in light of requests from members and new guidance, released Jan. 7 by the State of Minnesota, for indoor seated venues. The state guidance stipulates that:
In-person meetings and training sessions involving workers are allowed, but must be limited to as few workers as possible, and must not exceed 25 workers at one time when held indoors.
In addition:
In light of this new guidance, a key question to be considered is whether particular training sessions should be in-person or virtual. The following considerations bear on this question.
MMUA onsite training is done under the terms of the individual city or utility’s Pandemic Preparedness Plan. If the member has an appropriate facility and protocols in place for social distancing, mask wearing, and sanitizing, MMUA will conduct in-person training in those instances in which the member’s management determines that the value to be gained for the organization from an in-person training session outweighs any potential risks.
