Effective Date: August 1, 2020

Policy Statement:

At Blu Range Cebu Tours, our top priority is the safety and well-being of our guests and employees. As we continue to confront the ongoing challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, it is imperative that we take decisive action to ensure the utmost safety of all those who interact with our services. Therefore, we are implementing a mandatory COVID-19 vaccination policy for all in-person workers, including drivers, tour guides, office personnel, tour coordinators, and tour escorts. This policy outlines our unwavering commitment to creating a secure environment for everyone.

1. Mandatory Vaccination:

All in-person workers at Blu Range Cebu Tours are required to receive the COVID-19 vaccination. This is a critical step to minimize the potential spread of the virus and to provide the highest level of safety for our valued guests.

2. Compliance Deadline:

Employees are required to receive their full COVID-19 vaccination according to the schedule provided by the health authorities. Proof of vaccination should be submitted to the HR department no later than June 30, 2021.

3. Guest Safety Focus:

By requiring our in-person workers to be fully vaccinated, we are demonstrating our unwavering commitment to the safety and health of our guests. This measure ensures that we maintain the highest standards of protection while delivering exceptional experiences.

4. Exceptions:

In certain cases where medical conditions or religious beliefs prevent an employee from receiving the COVID-19 vaccine, reasonable accommodations will be explored on an individual basis. Such cases should be communicated to the HR department for evaluation and appropriate action.

5. Verification and Confidentiality:

Proof of vaccination will be kept confidential and securely maintained by the HR department. Verification records will only be used for compliance purposes and will be shared only with authorized personnel on a need-to-know basis.

6. Ongoing Health Protocols:

While vaccination is mandatory, it is not the sole safety measure. Blu Range Cebu Tours will continue to adhere to rigorous health and safety protocols, including mask-wearing, sanitization, physical distancing, and other measures recommended by local health authorities.

7. Enforcement and Consequences:

Employees who fail to comply with the mandatory vaccination policy without an approved exemption will be subject to sanctions as outlined in our company policies.

8. Transparent Communication:

Clear and consistent communication will be provided to employees about the importance of vaccination, the process for verification, and any updates to the policy. Open channels will be available for employees to address any questions or concerns.

9. Continuous Evaluation:

We will continually assess the effectiveness of our mandatory vaccination policy in line with the evolving situation and the guidance of health authorities. Adjustments will be made as necessary to uphold the highest standards of safety.

Conclusion:

Blu Range Cebu Tours is resolute in its commitment to protecting the well-being of our guests, employees, and community. This mandatory COVID-19 vaccination policy for in-person workers reflects our dedication to providing a safe environment while delivering exceptional service.
