Questions to Consider When to "Return Home" following the Lockdown

As Manila nears the end of the Modified Enhanced Community Quarantine (MECQ) due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the question on how to transition smoothly into the General Community Quarantine (GCQ) is one that needs to be urgently asked.

As one of the cities with the strictest COVID-19 lockdowns in the world, organizations and business professionals in Manila alike need to be both ready and aware of what they are facing moving forward into the GCQ.

Despite the impending relaxing of the quarantine measures, COVID-19 is still out there. With over 16000 cases and 940 deaths as of 29th May and steadily climbing, can an organization’s employees safely return to work? Are they authorized to access the office? Is there sufficient public transport for them to return to work? What are the measures needed to be undertaken in the event that a COVID suspect case is identified in the office? How long IS the ‘New Normal’ going to last before business as usual returns.

This Webinar, using the post MECQ environment of Manila as a case study, is set to explore the following questions:

  • Compared to other post-lockdown situations around the world, how does the Manila  differ in the measures and preparations they need to undertake?
  • What is the ‘New Normal’ for Manila? What are some adaptations in the MECQ period that will carry over to the ‘New Normal’?
  • What are the necessary steps needed to be taken and planned for prior to the return to the office?
  • How will Remote Working factor in moving forward into the ‘New Normal’?
  • What happens if your organization is not one of those able to return to the office?
  • How will you communicate the necessary measures and precautions
