According to the Minneapolis-based company's website, "Target will not require our U.S. team members or guests to wear masks, as local regulations allow. We’ll follow all state and local COVID-19 safety regulations and encourage our team members and guests to consult the latest public health guidance, get vaccinated and make decisions to keep themselves and their families safe."

In August 2021, the company said they would require masks for employees and highly recommended face coverings for customers in areas with high rates of COVID-19 infections.
