Considerations for COVID-19.
Our risk mitigation strategy
To keep workers safe and limit the spread of COVID-19, Evoegy has employed the following habits at our workplaces:
- ensure physical distancing by keeping a distance of at least 1.5 metres as far as is practicable between the team, from Clients and other teams when working on sites
- encouraging each other to frequently wash hands for at least 20 seconds with soap and practice good hygiene
- staying aware of how to spot COVID-19 symptoms (fever, cough, sore throat and shortness of breath) and make sure the team do not come to work if they are unwell
- make sure our workplaces are regularly cleaned and disinfected
- ensure sites we work on have signs and posters around the workplace to remind workers and others of the risks of COVID-19 and the measures that are necessary to stop its spread
- following all recommended safety precautions whilst travelling by air or public transport
- wearing face masks when requested, including maintaining one worker per four square metres of enclosed workspace or in shared areas as per site or office requirements
- collect records of all workers, subcontractors, customers and clients attending the same work premises and in close contact for 15 minutes or longer
- COVID testing will be undertaken where required
Being pragmatic
Much of Evoegy’s work is in support of essential and mission-critical activities, and our personnel are playing an integral role in supporting our Clients in their efforts to mitigate the spread, and ensure the safety of communities around the world. Where the essential and mission-critical nature of our work requires us to maintain staff at certain sites or locations, we work closely with our Clients to establish project-specific plans to ensure the safety of our people, the site in which we work on, and the integrity of the operation.
Embracing virtual teaming
Evoegy use Microsoft Teams (Teams) as it offers many benefits for remote work environments, including the ability to keep communication and collaboration as effective as traditional methods, while also meeting Evoegy's and our Client's security and compliance needs.
