Wearing masks helps reduce viral transmission and keep each other safe. Brandon University requires that everyone wear a face mask whenever indoors on campus, if you could be in the company of other people. For example, if you are alone in your office you may not need a mask. But at all other times, a mask should be work. This includes shared working spaces, hallways, and common areas.
