Poll Worker Training Materials
Effective Monday August 9, all employees, regardless of vaccination status, must wear a face mask in our public spaces, especially when social distancing is not possible.
All visitors to Town of Greenwich facilities will be required to wear a face mask, regardless of vaccination status.
It is likely this policy will still be in force for the Special Election on August 17. Please expect to be wearing a mask while working the polls.
Please note Moderators will not be providing food to poll workers. Please bring enough food and drinks to get you through the day. All poll workers will be paid $15 extra to cover this expense.
Poll workers are provided with Training Materials appropriate to their positions. In addition, the Secretary of the State produces a poll worker manual, Moderator's manual, absentee ballot manual, and others.
