At NewCo Communications, we are closely monitoring the latest developments with respect to the outbreak of the Coronavirus (COVID-19). Currently there are limited confirmed cases in Barcelona and very limited confirmed cases in Casablanca, resulting (today) in a low risk of impact on our daily business.
NewCo has already taken steps to ensure the safety and well-being of its employees, reviewing business continuity plans and working to implement guidelines to minimize the risk of contamination.
In summary:
- Updated information for our staff on the signs of infection.
- Sharing recommendations on hygiene.
- Non-essential travel has been put on hold.
- Meetings are conducted by video conference.
- Working from home has been encouraged where possible.
- Cleaning routines across all of our facilities are strengthened, and hygiene and sanitation in the shared office areas have been increased.
As Marc Ternest, NewCo Communications’ CEO states: “We are very well aware of the fact that the current situation is very dynamic, so we will monitor, update and revise our action plan accordingly to the advice of the Moroccan and Spanish government”.
At NewCo, we are confident about our precautionary measures, but we are aware that the events can take a turn at any given moment, due to (local) governmental actions that might have an impact on the operation of our services.
We will be in touch with our clients to discuss possible business continuity plans.
No matter how the situation evolves, clients can count on the NewCo Communications’ team!
