GVTC Takes Precautions Amidst Coronavirus
Dear Customers,
GVTC is focused on keeping you healthy and connected.
What we do is critical to ensuring you can connect to people and companies around the world for business or pleasure, and during these challenging times, it is even more critical as more of you begin to work or learn from home. We take pride in providing an outstanding network and customer experience.
The health and safety of our customers and employees are top priorities for GVTC, which is why we want to let you know what we’re doing to respond to the Coronavirus (COVID-19).
What GVTC is doing to help provide a safe environment:
We’re asking our employees in customer-facing roles or those that require onsite presence to take appropriate preventative measures – whether they are in our stores, call centers, our customers’ homes or businesses. This includes stocking up on hand sanitizer, protective masks and gloves as well as disinfectant spray and wipes. We’re also encouraging employees who may not feel well to avoid coming to work or interacting with customers.
Our front-line employees, field technicians and others take your health seriously, which is why we ask them to:
- Disinfect their workspace & hands after every customer interaction
- Pay extra attention to sanitizing common areas
- Wear protective gloves while in your home or business
- Avoid shaking hands or close personal interactions
- Take care of themselves by eating well, washing their hands frequently, and staying hydrated and well-rested
- Immediately report if they are not feeling well
