Dear Valued ASPRI Members,
Overcoming COVID-19 Together: Workplace Safe Management Measures • SafeEntry Implementation • Free Webinars
1/4: REQUIREMENTS FOR SAFE MANAGEMENT MEASURES AT THE WORKPLACE
As we prepare for the safe and gradual resumption of economic activities, our workplaces should begin to put in place Safe Management Measures ahead of time. The Ministry of Manpower (MOM), the National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) and the Singapore National Employers Federation (SNEF) have issued details on Safe Management Measures required of businesses to resume operations.
Businesses must:
• Reduce physical interaction and ensure safe distancing at workplaces
• Require employees to wear personal protective equipment and observe good personal hygiene
• Ensure cleanliness of workplace premises
• Implement a system of Safe Management Measures at workplaces
• Ensure necessary Safe Management Measures are communicated and explained to employees prior to the resumption of work
Note: The Government will take action against errant businesses, including the cessation of operations and enforcements.

2/4: IMPLEMENTATION OF SAFEENTRY
Alongside measures to reduce the risk of transmission in daily interactions and activities, we need to continue to strengthen our contact tracing regime through the use of technology.
Businesses and services that are in operation must come on board SafeEntry to log the check-in of employees and visitors. As a start, deployment will be made mandatory for places where individuals are likely to be in close proximity for prolonged periods or in enclosed spaces, or where there is higher traffic.
The list of facilities and places where SafeEntry must be deployed from 12 May 2020 can be found here, and will be updated as more activities and services resume.
