With the anticipated Third Wave’ of the Pandemic, the welfare of the people should be considered of prime importance.

      !t is the responsibility of each individual to ensure that adequate care is exercised as per the Health Advisories which are validated by thorough research and scientific validation. lt is also to be  understood that the restrictions imposed on the public has been in the interest of their welfare.

      However, it is also inevitable that return to normalcy and the gradual easing of the lockdown measures are being considered in the interest of the livelihood of the people and the economy in general.

      Given this background, it is of utmost importance that the individual or persons from each household who are venturing outside to work to earn their livelihoods be made to understand the importance of getting themselves vaccinated and maintain Covid protocols.

      To this end, the Principal Secretary to Govt of Meghalaya , Sampath Kumar issued following Guidellnes for the guidance of Officers and staffs of the State Government and all other establishments in the State in taking preventive and responsible measures to contain the spread of COVID-19 in office settings.

      (ii) Use IV95 or double mosk at all times. The masks must be worn properly to cover nose and mouth. Touching the front portion of mask/face covers to be avoided,
      (iii) Hands to be washed frequently with soap (for at least 40-50 seconds) even when hands are not visibly dirty. Alcohol-based hand sanitizers (for at least 20 seconds) can be used wherever feasible.

      (v) All Officials and staffs to self-monitor their health and to report any illness at the earliest to the immediate supervisory officer.
      (vi) Spitting shall be strictly prohibited.

      (vi) All officers, staffs and visitors to be allowed entry only if using face cover/masks. The face cover/mask has to be worn at all times inside the office premises. No coughing or sneezing without the masks are to be practiced as it is one of the fastest way to spread the virus.
      (vii) Visitors may be allowed after proper screening.
      (viii) Meetings, as far as feasible, should be done through video conferencing.
      (ix) Cafeteria/canteen etc., outside and within the office premises shall follow physical distancing norms at all times.
      (x) The workplace to be properly cleaned and sanitized at-least twice a day. Frequently touched surfaces – doorknobs, handrails, benches – must be sanitized (using 1% sodium hypochlorite). Lavatories to be disinfected properly.

      D. Management of premises

      (i) lf positive cases are reported, the disinfection procedure will be limited to places/areas occupied/visited by the infected person in the past 48 hours and work can be resumed immediately after disinfection as per laid down protocol.
      (ii) if large number of cases are reported at the workplace, the whole block or building should be disinfected.

      E. Vaccination:

      (i) All the State Government employees and all those working in various establishments are advised to get themselves vaccinated at the earliest and they are expected to lead by example so as to effectively contain the spread of COVID-19.
      This measure is also to help in the reduction of widespread infection amongst co-workers and their clients /reduce the severity of cases even if there is a case of vaccine breach, which is of minimal percentage as per data. lt is to be understood by all concerned that with the easing of restriction measures and slow return to normalcy, the number of people working will be as according to the already existing spaces despite the need to maintain maximum distance possible, considering space constraints in almost all offices both private/government. ln such working environments getting oneself vaccinated is the most sensible solution.
      (ii) Even after vaccination, the cardinal principles of COVID protocols (wearing of mask; maintaining social distance and hand hygiene) are to be followed diligently till achievement of ‘herd immunity for COVID-19 by vaccinating the entire eligible population of the State.
      (iii) The vaccination status is to be informed to the Supervisory/Controlling Officer and those who have not been vaccinated may also be advised to get themselves tested for COVID- 19 at regular intervals as a measure of safety.
