CORONA VIRUS - WE CARE ABOUT YOUR SAFETY
Dear JKJ Express Client,
Last night President Cyril Ramaphosa invoked a National State of Disaster.
In response to the COVID-19 threat, this morning the Management of JKJ Express had a meeting to determine how best we can protect all the JKJ Express staff and employees from contracting the virus, whilst at the same time ensuring the continued operation of the company.
We want to reassure all our clients that we will continue with business as efficiently as possible, and that we have put a number of measures in place to do so.
We are strictly monitoring any and all travel restrictions as well as any border post shutdowns.
Which are some of the smaller border posts , not the major border posts we utilize commercially to enter The BLNS countries and Mozambique ,which might cause clearance delays.
We are anticipating that the airlines will have fewer flights due to a lack of passengers, but will do our utmost to utilize all possible means at our disposal to ensure continued excellence.
We are entering un-chartered waters as the Covid-19 Virus and the rapid spread is causing major panic and alarm across all the continents of the world. We trust that, whilst taking this pandemic seriously, we will also be vigilant in not causing further panic going forward. We need
to be responsible in our daily lives and at a time like this, demonstrate leadership.
In the words of the Adrian Gore, CEO of Discovery: Leadership is everywhere. Everyone who makes decisions on behalf of other people is a leader.
To help establish a hygienic environment we have implemented the following:
1. Restricting access of visitors to reception and warehouse entrances where they will be required to sanitize their hands.
2. Each office and vehicle will be given Alcohol based hand sanitizes for daily protection.
3. Each Courier and Loader will be issued with gloves and a face mask.
4. We will not be having any closed office meetings unless absolutely necessary, and only the least number of required staff are to attend
We trust that as a country, we will get through this disastrous and stressful period if we all work together.
Kind Regards
JKJ Express Management
