00:00:02,283 --> 00:00:03,920
(logo whooshing)

3
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:04,810
- Good morning, LOGCOM,

4
00:00:04,810 --> 00:00:07,470
this is Dave Clifton,
your Executive Deputy.

5
00:00:07,470 --> 00:00:08,500
Like many of you,

6
00:00:08,500 --> 00:00:11,810
I'm a person who has some
of the characteristics

7
00:00:11,810 --> 00:00:14,330
that are high-risk for the coronavirus.

8
00:00:14,330 --> 00:00:18,860
I'm the caregiver of a
immune-compromised family member,

9
00:00:18,860 --> 00:00:20,770
so I know that as we prepare

10
00:00:20,770 --> 00:00:24,080
for the return of our workforce,

11
00:00:24,080 --> 00:00:27,660
that many of us have
questions regarding the health

12
00:00:27,660 --> 00:00:30,460
and the safety in the workplace.

13
00:00:30,460 --> 00:00:33,280
So the faces of our plan and the actions

14
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,890
that the command is taking to prepare

15
00:00:35,890 --> 00:00:38,220
for our return fully comply

16
00:00:38,220 --> 00:00:41,110
with all the DoD Force Health Protection

17
00:00:41,110 --> 00:00:43,770
and the Center for
Disease Control guidance,

18
00:00:43,770 --> 00:00:44,880
and they include things

19
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,900
like sanitizing of the work environment,

20
00:00:47,900 --> 00:00:50,330
the common areas and quarters,

21
00:00:50,330 --> 00:00:53,850
ensuring that adequate
cleaning supplies are available

22
00:00:53,850 --> 00:00:54,690
for the workforce

23
00:00:54,690 --> 00:00:58,550
in order to maintain
CDC cleaning guidelines,

24
00:00:58,550 --> 00:01:00,800
and, when practical, we've invested

25
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,230
in providing personal protective equipment

26
00:01:03,230 --> 00:01:04,760
for use in the workplace

27
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:08,930
when social distancing protocols
cannot be fully followed.

28
00:01:08,930 --> 00:01:12,170
I want to assure you that
the command is investing

29
00:01:12,170 --> 00:01:14,560
in taking measured, deliberate actions

30
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,600
to protect the LOGCOM family.

31
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:21,190
We encourage all personnel
to follow guidance put out

32
00:01:21,190 --> 00:01:23,400
by the Office of Personnel Readiness

33
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,810
and Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention,

34
00:01:26,810 --> 00:01:29,140
and to follow applicable federal, state,

35
00:01:29,140 --> 00:01:32,600
local, and protective health orders.

36
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:34,330
A full operational capability

37
00:01:34,330 --> 00:01:37,160
does not mean all hands on deck.

38
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:38,640
Over the coming weeks,

39
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,970
the command will exercise deliberate

40
00:01:40,970 --> 00:01:42,840
and measured return of personnel

41
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,990
based on health risk and
operational requirements,

42
00:01:46,990 --> 00:01:51,090
that will mitigate the risk
of spreading the Covid-19.

43
00:01:51,090 --> 00:01:54,470
I can assure you, one
thing has not changed,

44
00:01:54,470 --> 00:01:55,520
and that is the protection

45
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,793
of our workforce remains
our number one priority.

46
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,040
Maintain the social distancing protocols,

47
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,070
keep washing your hands,

48
00:02:05,070 --> 00:02:07,320
and stay in touch with
your chain of command.
