Disinfection Google

A month ago, we reported how Google My Business added new health and safety attributes for businesses to add to their local listings. It seems google has been expanding the number of attributes for these businesses.

Previously I saw these options:

  • Appointment required
  • Mask required
  • Staff get temperature checks
  • Staff wear masks
  • Temperature check required

Andrew Bullimore noticed more options now and posted them on Twitter. The additional options include:

  • Safety dividers at checkout
  • Staff required to disinfect surfaces between visits

Here is his screen shot:

I assume there are more as well but we are not seeing them all.
