Dear all,
Following on from government guidance we are now in the position to start a gradual return to the offices which have been working remotely since March 2020.
From 9th August, our headquarters D2 will partially reopen, with the intent to welcome everyone back by the end of the year. For our other UK locations which have had critical operations in place throughout the various lockdowns, local management will inform those of you that have been remote working when you will be returning.
Prior to your return to the office, you will be expected to complete the COVID-19 e-induction which will have been issued to you prior to your first day back in the office.
If you are unsure or have any queries, please get in touch with your Line Manager in the first instance.
Please ensure when you return you adhere to all safety signs in place as well as the below rules:
- Facemasks remain mandatory - staff are to wear masks at all times in the building, unless seated.
- Self-awareness of social distancing is expected, paying close attention to zones such as stairwells, lifts or kitchen where distancing will be restricted. Any capacity limits or restrictions will be clearly identified on displayed signage so please ensure to observe these at all times.
- Wash your hands frequently with hot soapy water and make use of the sanitizing stations available across site.
- When coughing and sneezing, cover your mouth and nose with a flexed elbow or a tissue
- If you have any symptoms, ensure you get tested immediately.
- Do not attend any sites if you are experiencing any COVID symptoms.
- Although not mandatory, the NHS recommend people take two lateral flow tests per week freely available from the NHS (details to order online here), and follow government guidance if you test positive.
If you have any queries or concerns, please email zzRM-COVID-19@ascoworld.com
Stay Safe,
The Task Force
