Gardens of the World COVID-19 and our Workplace

Here at Gardens of the World, the safety and well-being of our employees and our customers is always our top priority and we recognize that responsibility as a business. We know this is more important than ever right now. We are closely monitoring the updates from reliable sources like the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and the World Health Organization regarding the coronavirus (COVID-19).

We ensure everyone that the resources to stay healthy will continue to be available within our store. A policy has been put in place to routinely clean products, door handles, countertops, etc. throughout the day in a greater effort to keep our employees and customers safe.  In these uncertain times, expect that we will give you a warm hello and a sincere smile, but that we will not shake your hand to avoid passing germs. 

In accordance with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations, we encourage our associates to:

  • Wash their hands often with soap and warm or hot water for at least 20 seconds; use hand sanitizer when hand washing is not an option.
  • Avoid touching their face with unwashed hands.
  • Avoid close contact with people who are sick and reduce interactions, such as handshakes, with others.
  • Stay home if they are sick or presenting symptoms like those of COVID-19.
  • Cough or sneeze into a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
  • Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces with products proven to kill other strains of coronaviruses.
  • Stay Informed. We continue to share best practices to stay healthy from the CDC with our associates.
