From Monday, August 3, all Woolworths and BWS customers and staff are encouraged to wear face coverings in store, as part of a statewide recommendation from the Woolworths Group.
Woolworths Group CEO Brad Banducci said the "safety and wellbeing of our customers, teams and communities" was the company's top priority.
"While wearing a face covering is not mandatory in NSW or the ACT, we feel it's important that collectively we make face coverings feel as normal as possible and do whatever we can to help reduce community transmission of COVID-19," he said.
"Encouraging their use is one of the steps we can take together to limit the spread of the virus and help keep our teams and customers safe."
