New Delhi/IBNS: The Centre on Sunday released a set of guidelines for resuming work in the media production industry amid the coronavirus pandemic which necessitates 'minimal physical contact', PPEs for hairstylists and make-up artists among others.

"The general principles behind the SOP will help create a safe working environment for cast and crew in the industry, Union Information and Broadcasting Prakash Javadekar said while releasing the guidelines on Sunday.

"Contact Minimisation' is at the core of the SOP. This will be ensured by minimal physical contact and sharing of props, PPEs for hair stylists and make-up artists among others," Javadekar said.

The set of guidelines states that face mark or covers are mandatory for the cast and crew.
