(Franklin County, MA) Effective November 16 at Costco, everyone must wear a mask regardless of whether an employee or guest has a medical condition. Children under the age of two are still exempt. According to a recent press release outlining the policy, anyone who is not wearing a mask will be denied entry to the store.
“This updated policy may seem inconvenient to some, however we believe the added safety is worth any inconvenience,” the company stated in the press release.
Anyone who is unable to wear a mask due to a medical condition must wear a face shield as an alternative into the store. The company stated that the goal is to provide a safe shopping environment for employees and guests.
