Retailers must implement social distancing and sanitation measures established by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the U.S. Department of Labor and the Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS).

MARCH 5, 2021

Occupancy percentage limitations expire. Retailers must continue to implement physical distancing and mask protocols.

Arizona guidance for retailers includes operating with reduced occupancy based on the size of the business location, closing fitting rooms at clothing stores or other enclosed spaces and disinfecting shopping carts.
