Locher Evers International COVID Safety Plan

Locher Evers International COVID Safety Plan

At Locher Evers International, we are committed to putting our people first. With COVID-19
officially listed as a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO), we wanted to take a
moment and provide our staff and customers with our Safety Plan below.

We have implemented a number of guidelines that will help us reduce exposure to and
transmission of a range of illnesses, including the novel coronavirus.

Communication
We want to highlight the importance of communication, if/when you’re feeling threatened by
the COVID-19 pandemic. Please remain in close contact with your manager.
 
Safety precautions
We are elevating our safety precautions. If you have COVID-19 or think you might have it,
please follow recommendations of the health authorities which includes self isolation for a
minimum of 10 days.
We encourage you to follow usual health precautions, such as:

  • washing your hands often;
  • social distancing and avoiding interaction with those who are sick;
  • refraining from touching your face more than is necessary;
  • practising proper coughing and sneezing etiquette;
  • avoiding crowded events; and
  • avoiding non-essential travel.

We encourage staff to use face masks (non-medical or cloth or a face covering) and gloves
whenever possible especially if social distancing is not possible.

Distancing
Staff are encouraged to follow the social distancing guideline of 6ft (2m). Barriers of plexiglass
will be installed between all workstations that are less than 6ft apart and in high traffic areas
such as a desk near a door or along walkway

Office visitors
Office front doors are closed to visitors. Staff use side entrance. Couriers and mail staff
dropping off or picking up deliveries, please ring bell by the front door.
 
Remote-work options
Our IT department has been diligently working on our infrastructure to be able to provide the
ability for most of our Office staff to work from home if they have a compatible computer and
strong internet. Staff are to keep their manager up to date on workload.

Cleaning Protocols
Locher Evers International has utilized outside cleaners for daily cleaning and sanitizing of office
space. Disinfecting wipes and hand sanitizers are placed throughout all offices and warehouse
areas. Notification of proper hand washing practices has been provided to all staff.
