No one really talks about what to do once you get Covid-19. Have companies made an effort to proactively educate employees, or create a process to help employees report their illness with next steps?

Huh? There is so much info out there and even on this app. Just be logical, one doesn’t need to be spoon fed all the time. I had it. Reported it to my supervisor/ line manager, got connected to HR and they took it on. Super logical when you use your brain!

GroupM has us do a daily check in survey with our status, working WFH, working remotely, sick not working, not working bc caring for family member etc. and then there’s a manager check in and incident report form from WPP. So multiple layers for reporting sickness.

In terms of educational resources, both WPP and GroupM have built out sites on their intranets and have been communicated about multiple times. They might have been slow on the uptake and rolling WFH out but they have been good at comms ever since.

Thank you. That’s helpful. And, more importantly, answers the question. 😪🙄 lol

Good evening all,
With my partner we are considering making a move to the countryside of Switzerland, with a gorgeous RE project offering incredible views on immaculate mountains and lake. However, it is far away, and will require 1h+ train/car commute vs. 10 min biking right now. We are scared it will bite us back at some point, although COVID helped w/ remote working being a new norm. The project will be done 2024, so I hope to have a more relax job by then. Any similar experience to share?
