The Portland Bureau of Emergency Management and Multnomah County Public Health have developed posters for use in the public and in City of Portland buildings.

GROCERY STORE SIGNAGE
Grocers are concerned about their employees’ physical and emotional well-being during the COVID-19 crisis. Many have reported customers who are coming within six feet of employees and not wearing face coverings.
"Duty" and "Simple" Posters
The Portland Bureau of Emergency Management (PBEM) partnered with Behavioural Insights Team (BIT) to create posters for use in grocery stores. The goal of the poster campaign is to create common expectations for customers and to foster a culture of respect for grocery workers who are on the front lines of the COVID-19 crisis. There are two versions available - a "duty" version and a "simple" version. Read the project background to learn about the difference. The posters are unbranded and available for anyone to use. Grocers in the Portland area can request a printed copy by contacting PBEM at rdpo@portlandoregon.gov.

New Seasons is currently developing additional signage that utilizes graphic images. Those materials will be made available here.
