Narrative:
Again this morning; as has happened on many; many occasions the past few months; there were numerous crews in briefing rooms without masks...no food or drinks in sight. The meaning of 'should' in the fom indicates 'an action that is expected; a compelling reason must exist if the expectation cannot be met.'in accordance with state X public health order; and current company documentation; employees must wear a face mask that covers the nose and mouth whenever training in a flight simulator training device with others; should wear a face mask while in hallways; briefing rooms and common areas.this is not just a chance 'error'. I have repeatedly observed both instructors and evaluators not in compliance with the bulletin concerning mask wear.
