We encourage our members to directly speak with their Supervisor/Manager regarding the specific impacts to their position and nature of work.
Please note the difference of self directed isolation (based on your personal concerns) and medically directed isolation (showing symptoms and directed by a professional to quarantine). The difference impacts eligibility of benefits.
Please be aware the situation is changing and we will do our best to address your concerns.
