As South Africa prepares for a phased return-to-work plan in line with the government’s Level 3 risk-adjusted strategy, the University has prepared a detailed, inclusive strategy to embrace new ways of working, teaching and living in a safe, clean environment.
The law requires that we create and maintain a space that protects, as far as practically possible, the health and safety of our staff and students during the COVID-19 global pandemic.
OUR HEALTH AND SAFETY PROTOCOLS FOLLOW A THREE-STEP APPROACH:
-
Disease prevention (compulsory sanitary measures, such as physical distancing, temperature-taking, hand washing, hand sanitising and wearing of masks)
-
Disease surveillance (diagnostic screening and testing)
-
Disease management (quarantine/isolation protocols, virus diagnosis and treatment, decontamination and protocols for returning to campus following a COVID-19 positive diagnosis).
These photo galleries document some of the measures that have been put in place across our campuses.
