Use of face mask at UNIGE
Updated 26 February 2021
Wearing a face mask is compulsory inside all university buildings and at the outdoor entrances of the buildings even if social-distancing requirements are met. Specifically, mask must be worn on at all times, including in elevators, bathrooms, classrooms, libraries, offices and whenever people move around.
The only exceptions are:
- in cafeterias, which are still subject to the company catering protection plan, so you can remove your face mask when seated;
- in individual offices, if you are alone;
- people who cannot wear a face mask for medical or other reasons, in which case a certificate from a specialist must be obtained.
The FOPH rules on the correct use of face masks must be followed by staff members, students and anyone else on University premises. The Rectorate has also drawn up a directive setting out the rules concerning face masks.
