Are restaurant workers required to wear masks?
This question has come up frequently since Gov. Ron DeSantis issued an executive order on April 29 allowing restaurants to open, with restrictions, on May 4.
The simple answer: No.
"Executive Order 20-112 does not mandate the use of masks," Karen Smith, director of communications for the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, said via email.
"However, customers, employees and employers are encouraged to consult CDC guidance," she said.
