October 8, 2020<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under orders from the Government of Ontario and guidance from Public Health Ontario and Ottawa Public Health, 杏吧原创 University is required to implement COVID-19 screening<\/a> for all employees (including faculty, contract instructors, staff and teaching\/research assistants), students and visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Effective immediately, the <\/strong>short COVID-19 screening form<\/strong><\/a> must be completed each day you plan to enter a 杏吧原创 University building.<\/strong> An email confirmation of your submission will be sent to your 杏吧原创 email account. Please keep this email for your records and inform your manager\/supervisor\/chair when indicated in the email confirmation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Employees are expected to continue to work remotely if their duties can be performed remotely. <\/strong>If you are required to be on campus, in addition to completing the COVID-19 screening form, you must follow the existing building access protocols<\/a> and ensure you have completed the required training on cuLearn<\/a>. We continue to encourage everyone to review the COVID-19 information website<\/a> for preventative steps. In particular, wear a mask, stay two metres away from others, isolate yourself if feeling unwell, and exercise frequent hand hygiene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have been on campus in the 14 days prior to the onset of symptoms potentially linked to COVID-19, have had a positive COVID-19 test result or have been advised by public health authorities that you must self-isolate (including under the Class Section 22 order), you are required to submit a report<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you for your continued patience and understanding as we navigate through these challenging times together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sincerely,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
