COVID-19 PREVENTION MEASURES
Date: 16 Mar 2020
As a responsible developer and mall owner, Hunza Properties Berhad takes the safety and health of our staff as well as stakeholders at utmost priority. We had in place precautionary measures across our premises since February 2020 when the Covid-19 outbreak escalated far and wide. We started with company-wide travel advisory to affected countries and implemented measures such as placing hand sanitizers at key access areas within our offices to encourage our staff as well as stakeholders to practice high level of hygiene awareness.
With World Health Organization (WHO) recently declaring Covid-19 as a global pandemic and the intensified situation here in Malaysia, we have strengthened the precautionary instruments in place on top of deploying additional measures across our premises to mitigate any possible risk to our staff and stakeholders.
For Gurney Paragon Mall, we have initiated scheduled cleaning of public areas as well as amenities (handrails, escalators, lift, door handles and mall directory) on daily basis (5 times per day on weekday and 6 times per day on weekends) on top of increased wipe down in all of our restrooms. We have also started temperature screening of every shoppers in various access points into the mall and installed more hand sanitizers at key areas with high footfall.
For the adjoining Hunza Tower, we are implementing the similar measures of temperature screening at the access points for all office workers and visitors, as well as increased daily cleaning in all public areas. To ensure the effectiveness of these precautionary actions, we have also reduced public access points into both Gurney Paragon Mall and Hunza Tower. Any person with recorded temperature exceeding 38°C / 100.4°F will be politely refused entry into our premises. Concurrently, any staff under Hunza Properties Berhad and our subsidiaries who is found to be unwell or was in proximity with any of the affected areas will be asked to seek immediate medical advice and observe self-quarantine as accordance to the guideline by Malaysia’s Ministry of Health and World Health Organization.
Our corporate office, sales galleries and construction sites are also fitted with the necessary temperature scanning instruments, periodical cleaning and sanitization to ensure the well-being of our staff. Safety briefings have been conducted to our construction personnel on-site, and all staff have been informed to observe hygienic practices at all times. These measures have all been implemented with immediate effect.
In responding to any possibilities ahead, we have also formed an Emergency Action Team which is tasked with planning and managing situations arising from this occurrence. Further from here, we look forward to opportunities to work closely with the relevant authorities in keeping the situation here in Penang under control.
With all the precautionary mechanism in place, we would like to assure all that Hunza Properties Berhad and our subsidiaries are placing the health and safety of our staff as well as stakeholders before everything else. These proactive initiatives are meant to emphasize the principle of “prevention is better than cure”, and we hope to play our part in the community. These are also in alignment with our Corporate Mission of “Care for the welfare of our employees” and “Contribute to society”. We will continue to monitor the situation accordingly, and will comply with all the guidelines as set by Malaysia’s Ministry of Health and World Health Organization.
Last but not least, we would like to thank our stakeholders for the kind understanding and support towards our initiatives. We look forward to be of continuous service to all in our premises.
