COVID-19 Policy
As we continue to navigate through the COVID-19 pandemic, we want to express our gratitude for your ongoing commitment to maintaining a safe and healthy workplace. Your efforts have been instrumental in keeping our workplace operational while minimizing the risk of COVID-19 transmission.
We are writing to inform you that, effective May 11th, we will no longer require employees to be vaccinated against COVID-19, and we will no longer be reporting positive cases. This decision is in line with recent guidance from the White House ending vaccine requirements for Federal employees. We understand that this change may be challenging for some employees, but we believe that it is the most appropriate course of action given the current phase of our response to the pandemic.
We want to emphasize that we remain committed to providing a safe workplace for all employees. We will continue to monitor the situation closely and adjust our policies as needed. At this time, we will continue to provide up to 40 hours of Covid Pay if all other leave balances have been exhausted. We will also continue to provide tests in the office should there be a need, and we encourage all employees to stay home when ill.
As always, our top priority is the health and safety of our employees, and we encourage everyone to continue to follow all relevant guidelines, including wearing masks and practicing social distancing as needed. We recognize that some employees may wish to continue wearing masks, and we fully support that decision.
We understand that this change may raise questions or concerns, and we encourage all employees to speak with your manager or HR if you have any questions or require additional information. We are here to support you and ensure that the transition is as smooth as possible.
Once again, thank you for your ongoing dedication to maintaining a safe and healthy workplace. We are thankful.
