We have been told by government and health officials that this virus is highly contagious and can be lethal. Bass & Hays is not willing to take any chances with anyone’s health or safety.
Please note the following temporary precautions-
- Social distancing is in effect immediately. Everyone should stay a minimum 6-10 feet distance from one another, wash hands often, practice good hygiene, etc.
- The Bagdad street office will be temporarily closed to the general public and customers and locked accessible only by Bass & Hays employees, or govt/health officials who request entry. Customers or general public should not come to the Bagdad will-call office at this time unless approved by sales or management.
- Anyone who has been exposed to a confirmed COVID-19 case or a person with COVID-19 symptoms, should immediately self-quarantine, and immediately report this to their doctor or the ER, and to their company management. You are highly encouraged to communicate with your primary care physician or health care professionals and do exactly as they say. You are highly encouraged to keep up with and strictly follow any and all directives from our federal, state, local governments and health officials and do as they say.
- Our sales team and outside employees will be working back and forth from inside and outside and will be under strict social-distancing and proper hygiene restrictions. Some of our sales staff will rotate in and out of working from their homes and also be mobile should the need arise.
- Customers should call or send in PO’s via email. Customers or general public may come to the Bagdad will-call office and pick up materials if approved by sales or management. Otherwise Bass & Hays will arrange delivery to your yard or job site within five days and will also abide by your company’s restrictions (if any are in effect)
- Any Bass & Hays employee traveling out of the immediate N. TX area should not to return to work for a period of 14 days and not be showing any COVID-19 symptoms. (exception is sales or management on approved deliveries unless they begin showing symtoms) We ask that if you have been exposed to a confirmed case, someone with symptoms, or have traveled unauthorized outside the immediate area, that you be cleared by a licensed physician OR by a federal, state, or local government health official before returning to work, OR when the authorities have given the all clear to return to normal activity, whichever occurs soonest.
- These restrictions will be in effect until further notice, no exceptions. This is something we are going to have to work with day to day and we will get through it. Again- these are proactive precautionary measures on our part to protect the well-being and safety of the general public, our customers, our employees, and their families. No effort is too great to protect one another if we can prevent the spread of this disease.
