Much like the rest of the world, Gent Machine has created and rolled out a plan for the coronavirus. We want our employees to feel safe at work and know their job is safe if they come into contact or contract the virus. Since the virus is spread like any other virus, from animal/person to person via droplets we have done the following:
- Posted notices for everyone to wash their hands frequently and for 20 seconds
- Put 5-6 feet between each other when talking to one another
- Wipe down all non-personal computers after use
- Elbow bump or something else rather than shake hands
- Limit meetings to smaller groups
- Placed hand sanitizer and cleansing wipes around the shop
- We’ve propped open doors where the handles are regularly touched
- Required our employees to self quarantine if they are in contact with someone that tests positive for the virus. They would not receive points or need to use PTO if this is the case.
- Continually communicate updated coronavirus information from the CDC
As we said to our employees, please be safe and always remember to wash your hands before eating or touching your face.
