IN an effort to safeguard the health of both personnel and persons deprived of liberty (PDLs), the Bureau of Corrections (BuCor) has implemented again a mandatory facemask policy within its facilities in a bid to prevent the spread of respiratory illnesses.
By strictly enforcing facemask usage in BuCor premises, the organization takes a proactive stance to shield individuals from both contracting and transmitting infections.
This policy underscores the significance of every precautionary measure in maintaining a healthy and secure environment within the correctional system.
Mandatory facemask applies to on-duty personnel, visitors (including PDL visitors and civilians), counsels, individuals entering BuCor buildings and camps, as well as those transacting in all BuCor offices, as published on abogado.ph
