In the recent outbreak of COVID-19, we have been ramping up our effort to take precautionary measures against community spread.
Increased Frequency of High Touchpoints’ Cleaning Works
Common physical touchpoints with high-traffic area, such as lift buttons, railings, playground equipment, are being cleaned with disinfectant twice a day. In addition, we also care about the wellbeing of our conservancy team, staff and residents.
Our conservancy team has been briefed to conduct cleaning works with care, through proper gearing of gloves and sanitation upon completion of cleaning works. We also ensure that our team is well to carry out their duties and is advised to seek medical consultation should they feel unwell.
Daily Temperature Screening
We have also put-in place a mandatory daily temperature screening for all our Staff and residents, who are visiting our office. Any individual screened with a fever and has respiratory symptoms will be advised to visit a doctor immediately.
