As many countries cautiously make their way toward relaxing Covid-19 lockdowns, many companies, including AP Companies, are starting to envision a time when their employees can stop working from home and return to the office. There is much to consider when deciding when and how to invite employees to return to their offices following the COVID-19 pandemic. Though timing and specifics of reintegration plans will vary based upon geography of our offices and the unique needs of the company in this or that location, AP Companies has developed a holistic approach to this matter.
In the absence of a vaccine, aspects of our workplaces will change and this will involve a mixture of different measures.
- Reducing the number of staff in the office at one time in order to provide social distance
- Flexible schedules, where the employees will start and finish their working day at different time and not all at once, in order to avoid crowded doors and elevators
- Hygiene will be put at the heart of planning any meetings and activities
- Rotating days (some employees will work from home on Mondays and Wednesdays, others on Tuesdays and Thursdays)
- Temperature checks
- Sanitizers available at each table
Etc,
We will be beginning with those who have the greatest need to be office based for example our customer service teams, that need to work on the phone the majority of their time and the connection and the outside noise, sometimes impacts our customer’s experience.
Our network team, sales and billing will continue to work remotely.
We continue to provide full support to our clients, developing and improving our medical network and making the most of everything we do.
We stand by you.
