Orange is Putting its Employees First
Orange is taking serious measurements to avoid any infection and has been following the precautions that were enforced by the World Health Organization and the government. The company has suspended all of its international business trips and limited its domestic ones until the end of May.
As for the internal employees, the company has applied the “Work from Home” process for those who can operate from home to reduce social gatherings.
As for those who can only operate from the company itself, they were provided with a safe working environment.
The first thing the company does at the beginning of each day is detecting the employees’ temperature through infrared thermometers, they don’t allow external visits unless it’s for maintenance cases and they undergo the company’s health checking policy.
Orange has put hand-sanitizing devices in each of its premises and distributed masks and gloves on its employees to guarantee their safety. The company also sterilizes its buildings’ surfaces, bathrooms, elevators on a daily basis; they also make sure of providing the working places during the working hours with fresh air and ventilation.
The company has given its employees who suffer from chronic diseases such as heart conditions, diabetes, lung diseases, or other serious medical conditions, 14 days of paid leave after coordinating with the company’s medical team and the direct manager.
We can notice the efforts made from Orange and other companies to ensure everyone’s safety and we hope this crisis can pass without any major losses.
