UPDATE: As of Tuesday 07/04/2020 W+S Staff have the option to be flexible and Work From Home (WFH) or appropriately spaced out within the CBD studio. Please contact staff directly via email or mobile for direct access to avoid any delays in communication.
W+S takes its responsibility for the health and welfare of our staff, clients, consultants and the wider community with great importance, and are therefore actively monitoring the escalating COVID-19 pandemic.
As such, effective immediately we have implemented an office wide policy to limit all physical contact and interaction including travel, meetings, site visits and product updates to only those that are project essential over the near foreseeable future. This will minimise unnecessary movement and contact to comply with the governments social distancing and quarantine requirements - particularly as we work predominantly in the most vulnerable industries of healthcare, aged care and education environments. Phone calls and digital communication will be prioritised where appropriate and possible.
Additionally, we have prepared an internal work from home procedure so that we as a workplace are prepared if staff are required to self isolate, but are still well enough to work from their home environment to prevent any major disruption to our normal level of service and current project deadlines.
We will continue to monitor the situation and be guided by the Department of Health’s announcement’s and recommendations. For now, it’s business as usual as we implement these minor adjustments and diligently practice good hygiene to protect each other and flatten the curve.
