Onet Handbook or Getting Back to Your Workplace in Complete Security
During the lockdown, Onet responded very quickly by putting together a COVID-19 handbook for its entire workforce. This aid provides rules and best practices to be followed for a progressive and gradual return based on government announcements.
It explains the various precautionary measures, including health and safety rules to follow en route, whatever the mode of transportation used. The objective is to reassure the workforce and to demonstrate that the barrier gestures are not incompatible with travel if certain conditions are met.
From car-sharing to public transportation to the use of bicycles, everything must be thought through to preempt and control the risk of infection to be able to move about in complete tranquility.
