After a brief suspension, the “traffic light monitoring system updates” is back online. The federal government evaluated risk criteria and measurement parameters. The Health Monitoring Committee released this updated monitoring system focusing in the indication of capacity percentage allowed for on-site return to private corporate offices.
We’re recommending our clients to follow federal guidelines and limit on-site operations capacity, complying with sanitary measures and performing, on a weekly basis, rapid antigen tests or polymerase chain reaction RT-PCR tests for the detection of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, for at least 20 percent of the personnel who are working on-site.
Finally, the verification visits by the Administrative Verification Institute and other governmental authorities will continue to monitor compliance with general and specific sanitary measures for workplace health protection. Authorities may impose fines and/or total or partial temporary suspensions of work centres for up to 15 calendar days in cases of noncompliance.
Please refer to the updated table below, to validate the new criteria established by the authorities.
