00:02.283 --> 00:03.920
(logo whooshing)

00:03.920 --> 00:04.810
- Good morning, LOGCOM,

00:04.810 --> 00:07.470
this is Dave Clifton,
your Executive Deputy.

00:07.470 --> 00:08.500
Like many of you,

00:08.500 --> 00:11.810
I'm a person who has some
of the characteristics

00:11.810 --> 00:14.330
that are high-risk for the coronavirus.

00:14.330 --> 00:18.860
I'm the caregiver of a
immune-compromised family member,

00:18.860 --> 00:20.770
so I know that as we prepare

00:20.770 --> 00:24.080
for the return of our workforce,

00:24.080 --> 00:27.660
that many of us have
questions regarding the health

00:27.660 --> 00:30.460
and the safety in the workplace.

00:30.460 --> 00:33.280
So the faces of our plan and the actions

00:33.280 --> 00:35.890
that the command is taking to prepare

00:35.890 --> 00:38.220
for our return fully comply

00:38.220 --> 00:41.110
with all the DoD Force Health Protection

00:41.110 --> 00:43.770
and the Center for
Disease Control guidance,

00:43.770 --> 00:44.880
and they include things

00:44.880 --> 00:47.900
like sanitizing of the work environment,

00:47.900 --> 00:50.330
the common areas and quarters,

00:50.330 --> 00:53.850
ensuring that adequate
cleaning supplies are available

00:53.850 --> 00:54.690
for the workforce

00:54.690 --> 00:58.550
in order to maintain
CDC cleaning guidelines,

00:58.550 --> 01:00.800
and, when practical, we've invested

01:00.800 --> 01:03.230
in providing personal protective equipment

01:03.230 --> 01:04.760
for use in the workplace

01:04.760 --> 01:08.930
when social distancing protocols
cannot be fully followed.

01:08.930 --> 01:12.170
I want to assure you that
the command is investing

01:12.170 --> 01:14.560
in taking measured, deliberate actions

01:14.560 --> 01:17.600
to protect the LOGCOM family.

01:17.600 --> 01:21.190
We encourage all personnel
to follow guidance put out

01:21.190 --> 01:23.400
by the Office of Personnel Readiness

01:23.400 --> 01:26.810
and Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention,

01:26.810 --> 01:29.140
and to follow applicable federal, state,

01:29.140 --> 01:32.600
local, and protective health orders.

01:32.600 --> 01:34.330
A full operational capability

01:34.330 --> 01:37.160
does not mean all hands on deck.

01:37.160 --> 01:38.640
Over the coming weeks,

01:38.640 --> 01:40.970
the command will exercise deliberate

01:40.970 --> 01:42.840
and measured return of personnel

01:42.840 --> 01:46.990
based on health risk and
operational requirements,

01:46.990 --> 01:51.090
that will mitigate the risk
of spreading the Covid-19.

01:51.090 --> 01:54.470
I can assure you, one
thing has not changed,

01:54.470 --> 01:55.520
and that is the protection

01:55.520 --> 01:58.793
of our workforce remains
our number one priority.

01:59.800 --> 02:03.040
Maintain the social distancing protocols,

02:03.040 --> 02:05.070
keep washing your hands,

02:05.070 --> 02:07.320
and stay in touch with
your chain of command.
