Raleigh Convention Center Expands Sanitization Protocol and Begins GBAC STAR Accreditation
8/12/2020
The Raleigh Convention Center (RCC) has strengthened its commitment to ensuring a safe environment through its pursuit of the Global Biorisk Advisory Council (GBAC) STAR™ accreditation, expanding facility cleaning methods and increasing its meticulous catering and food operations. GBAC STAR is the cleaning industry’s only outbreak prevention, response, and recovery accreditation program for public and commercial facilities. Its 20 elements establish requirements for facilities to implement the highest standards of work practices, protocols, procedures, and systems to control risks associated with infectious agents, such as SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19. RCC will be creating foundational communications for informing all stakeholders around the ongoing and rigorous steps being taken around cleanliness, disinfection, and infectious disease prevention. GBAC STAR is administered by GBAC, a division of ISSA, the worldwide cleaning industry association. In addition to participating in this prestigious accreditation program, RCC is taking the following measures:
Kerry Painter serves as Chair of NC Live, a coalition providing guidance and best practices across the state for safe reopening of venues and facilities.

In total, the 18 venues in the coalition received over 3.3 million patrons during more than 2,500 performances in 2019.
