The guidance lists workers who support the manufacture and distribution of forest products, including, but not limited to timber, paper and other wood products, along with healthcare providers, law enforcement and public safety, and utility and transportation workers. These workers are part of the “overall federal effort to ensure the security and resilience of the nation’s critical infrastructure” during the pandemic response.
