All,
As we have yet another variant (Omicron) sweeping through the United States, we are also starting to see an uptick in positive cases in the Nashville area. I want to take the opportunity to remind everyone of our accountability policy and that we need to make sure we are all compliant with the best practice to keep everyone safe. Your compliance is very appreciated.
Our policy is below.

Covid-19 Accountability Guidelines
December 2021
Purpose
The purpose of this document is to communicate the accountability guidelines for instances of non-compliance with COVID-19 procedures.
Expectations
Hayward will use an objective and consistent approach to determine the appropriate disciplinary response when a violation is confirmed.
Due to the seriousness with which we view the COVID-19 procedures, confirmed violations of COVID-19 guidelines would result in disciplinary action up to and including termination.
Examples:
-
Not respecting social distancing
-
Not following cleaning protocol at the beginning/end of shift
-
Failure to wear a face-covering if working within 6 feet of another person.
Termination would result from a first-time offense if the behavior were deliberate and irresponsible, putting others' safety at risk.
Examples:
-
Coming to work after being tested for COVID-19
-
Coming to work while you are under home isolation or quarantine orders.
Site leaders must lead by example and demonstrate compliance with COVID-19 procedures and are expected to enforce Hayward's policies with all associates.
