Revised Code of Conduct/Zero Tolerance

We wanted to share the below documents to be distributed to staff and utilized in programs; CEO’s revised Code of Conduct and Zero Tolerance Policy. These documents provide guidance and expectations for customer behaviors while on CEO premises.  Over the past few weeks laminated versions of these documents have been delivered to sites/programs, we will be adding exterior signage to each building, and they will be available for additional reference and use on the Quality Assurance resource page.

In the upcoming months we will be looking to provide additional training/support on emergency procedures, de-escalation, and incident reporting. Please advise staff to seek support if necessary, follow current emergency procedures, and complete an incident report immediately following any violation of the Code of Conduct/Zero Tolerance policies.

Thank you for all you do to assist our community, and please reach out to Erin Hernandez if you have any questions or would like any additional information.

COVID Protocol Reminder

We wanted to send out a reminder regarding CEO’s COVID protocol for staff that test positive. All staff will continue to be required to contact Tia Nunziato (tnunziato@ceoempowers.org or 518-272-6012 ext. 283) or Alyssa Garner (agarner@ceoempowers.org or 518-272-6012 ext. 422) if they test positive for COVID and also immediately notify their supervisor.

Once HR is notified of a positive COVID case we follow up with the staff member via a phone call to provide guidance on returning to work in accordance with the updated CDC guidance.

The following protocols will be followed for staff testing positive for Covid-19:

Positive COVID Test Protocols for Asymptomatic (no symptoms) Individuals:

  • Employees will not need to observe a quarantine period but will be required to wear a mask for 5 days after positive test results are received.  Interactions with others must be limited to the best of your ability.  

Positive COVID Test Protocols for Symptomatic Individuals:

  • Staff will be required to stay home until at least 24 hours have passed where both their symptoms are getting better overall, and they have not had a fever without the use of fever-reducing medication. Once this period passes, the individual can return to work and will be required to wear a mask for 5 days from the day symptoms began.

As always please reach out to HR with any questions.

Baby Shop Closet
