Common use of Zones Clause in Contracts

Zones. a. Zone A are those employees who wear PPE at all times when working, and are present in a workspace with a performer who is not wearing a mask. i. Testing regimen for shows longer than two days: no less than once every three days. ii. For one or two day shoots where the last shoot day falls on the 3rd day from the pre-employment test, a second test is not required. (example: when a pre- employment test is conducted on a Monday, and shooting takes place on Wednesday and Thursday only, since Thursday is the third day following the pre-employment test, no second test is required. If, on the other hand, shooting takes place on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, a second test is required prior to the start of work on Thursday.) b. Zone B employees are those who: i. Work on set, but are not in the workspace when a performer is unmasked. ii. Wear PPE at all times when working and only work with others who can do the same. iii. Also, those who work during prep or any other area where the production has a footprint that is not an area where Zone C employees work. 1. Testing regimen: no less than 1x a week if tested within 3 days prior to employment using a lab-based PCR diagnostic test or 2 rapid tests taken at the same time. If a test result cannot be obtained within a 3 day period, the employee can be administered a rapid test and receive a negative result within the past 24 hours; or The employee is being periodically tested more frequently than the minimum requirements for their zone, and all tests taken and received within the past 7 days have been negative. c. Zone C employees are those who: i. wear PPE at all times when working, only work with others who can do the same, and are not required to be within 6’ of others for longer than 15 minutes while working (unless there are more stringent rules regarding time/distance for determining “close contact”). ii. Do not come into contact with Zone A or B employees, unless all parties wear iii. Zone C employees cannot enter Zones A or B unless they have a negative diagnostic test which corresponds with the Zone they will be entering. 1. Testing regimen: no less than 1x every 2 weeks with a lab-based PCR diagnostic test with results returned within 3 days. Employer is encouraged to stagger testing of crew. “Pool testing” may be used (as per FDA authorization; currently up to four people per pool.)
