Gov’t allows limited dine-in, salons, barbershops under MECQ
The Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) has permitted dine-in services in restaurants and food establishments to resume at 10% capacity in areas under Modified Enhanced Community Quarantine (MECQ).
Barbershops, beauty salons, nail spas, and similar establishments are also allowed to operate at 30% capacity within MECQ zones.
Food establishments can increase their dine-in capacity beyond the initial 10% if they obtain a Safety Seal Certification, indicating adherence to health protocols.
Similarly, personal care services can exceed the 30% capacity limit by complying with the Safety Seal Certification Program.
Both dine-in services and personal care establishments must ensure that clients and service providers can wear face masks at all times during the services provided.
