Due to COVID-19 and client specific requests, HSPS is providing guidelines that all independent contractors will need to read, review and agree to adhere to if they wish to offer their services to HSPS during the Covid-19 virus pandemic. Those contractors who do not wish to adhere to these guidelines will not be able to be utilized until the pandemic is resolved.
All Servers must:
- Adhere to CDC and local/State guidelines related to Covid-19.
- Wear a cloth mask as described by the CDC (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/diy-cloth-face-coverings.html) at all times when outside your personal vehicle serving papers for HSPS and its clients.
- Utilize hand sanitizer while handling or serving documents.
- Maintain Social Distancing at all times when serving. Social distancing as defined by the CDC is a distance of 6 feet or greater.
- Pass a Health Screening Questionnaire before serving for the day. Health Questionnaire is derived from information on the CDC website.
- It is your personal responsibility to assess your own health according to the guidelines set forth below in the Health Questionnaire. Contractors do not need to report findings daily, only need to report findings that would require them to stop serving papers.
Health Questionnaire
Do you have any of the following symptoms?
- Cough
- Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
- Fever

If you answered YES to any of the above in the Health Questionnaire, you should stop serving all HSPS papers, notify HSPS and agree to self Quarantine. Please report to HSPS once you have been symptom free for at least 10 days and able to then resume your services, or your health professional has approved you to resume work.
