Important Information: COVID-19 Update for Resolve Recruit Employees

Posted

Dear Employees,

I want to acknowledge the uncertainty and anxiousness being created by the global health challenge we are facing. The concern for own personal health and for loved ones around us drives us to seek information, answers to questions and actions we can take individually.

It’s important for us to maintain perspective and listen to evidence-based information from our world health experts even though it’s hard at times to cut through the clutter of misinformation.

The health and safety of our employees is our priority. According to the Public Health Agency of Canada, the public health risk associated with COVID-19 is still low in Canada.

We urge you to remain informed with news regarding the virus and the symptoms associated with the virus. Resolve Recruit Inc. is taking the necessary steps to ensure employees can recognize symptoms and are aware of workplace best practices to prevent the spread of the virus.

COVID 19

Maintaining a healthy workplace

To prevent the spread of COVID-19, the flu and other illnesses, wash your hands often and stay home to recover if you are ill.

Hygiene

Proper hygiene can help reduce the risk of infection or spreading infection to others:

  • wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after using the washroom and when preparing food
    • use alcohol-based hand sanitizer if soap and water are not available
  • when coughing or sneezing:
    • cough or sneeze into a tissue or the bend of your arm, not your hand
    • dispose of any tissues you have used as soon as possible in a lined waste basket and wash your hands afterwards
  • avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth with unwashed hands

What to do at-a-glance:

If you develop any of the Coronavirus symptoms or flu like symptoms, please seek immediate medical attention and remain home when instructed by your health provider. Following these measures will help reduce the spread of any infectious bacteria:
