Bring employees back to work safely after a long time working from home with the Employee return to work guidelines template.
As the lockdown caused by COVID-19 eases, some companies intend to revert back to old ways as their employees have been fully vaccinated. But with the coronavirus still posing a threat, managers need to keep the business running without putting their healths at risk and they need an employee return to work guideline to successfully achieve this.
The employee return to work guidelines acts as a blueprint for executing the necessary safety measures when employees return to the office. By having these guidelines, employers will communicate when employees should return and the changes they are to expect on their return to work. They will also be able to provide information on how employees are to carry out daily tasks while observing social distancing protocols. That's why we created this template to guide you and your employees to get back to work safely.
This return to work guidelines communicates {Company’s name} policies to employees resuming their duties following the COVID-19 outbreak. Its purpose is to help managers and employees who have been working from home smoothly resume their duties while following health guidelines and maintaining social distancing protocols.
