– The mayors of Talisay City, Consolacion and Minglanilla towns have endorsed two proposed measures under the Project “Balik Buhay” , which are randomized testing and suspension of business operations in companies with confirmed coronavirus disease cases to be included in the executive orders that the local government units will soon issue.
The PBB is an initiative of the Office of the Presidential Assistant for the Visayas , LGUs, concerned national government agencies and the business sector that aims to serve as a road map to reopen the economy and businesses safely. Gullas recalled that when Cebu City and Talisay City and other areas were placed under general community quarantine , he got so worried, especially when the number of COVID-19 cases started to rise. He added that Talisay City coordinated with the businesses in his area to establish a protocol on what to do if there’s a positive case present at the workplace.
Alegado said that this will discipline and remind the businessmen of their responsibility to their employees to avoid local transmission within the workplace. She recalled that when two employees of a mall in Consolacion tested positive for the virus, they shut down the mall for 24 hours for decontamination and conducted massive contact tracing and forty employees were place under isolation.
For the workers, who were in contact with the COVID-19 positive worker, they will be required to go on 14-day quarantine based on the company’s Testing and Tracing Protocols.
