The Governor announced the following new COVID restrictions that will impact the restaurant industry:
Starting Friday, restaurants and breweries, retail stores, gyms, salons, and similar businesses will now be required to close for two weeks if they have four separate outbreaks — each triggering state action under the “rapid response” program — within a 14-day period.
Restaurants and breweries will have to consent to spot testing of employees.
Those offering indoor dining will be required to keep a logbook of who dines on-site.
Foodservice establishments will be required to participate in the NM Safe Certified training program by October 30 to continue operating at 25% of capacity indoors.
NM Safe Certified trains New Mexico businesses in COVID-Safe Practices to help ensure all of us —customers, employees, and families—remain safe as New Mexico reopens for business and recreation.
