As an employer, what are the health and safety measures that I should implement for dormitory residents?
You are encouraged to facilitate COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Tests (ART) as soon as the following groups arrive at your dormitory:
- New workers from overseas
- Workers returning from overseas leave
| If your worker | Your worker should |
|---|---|
| Has symptoms such as a fever, sore throat, cough, or runny nose |
Wear a surgical mask and seek immediate medical attention. While recovering, they should stay in their own rooms or isolation facilities within the dormitories. They should not leave their room unless necessary, such as to buy food.
