COVID-19 UPDATE

June 5, 2020

The unprecedented emergence of COVID-19 has undoubtedly impacted every aspect of life. Workplaces across the country have been forced to adapt, and Cresta Advisors is among them.

Back in mid-March, in order to combat the uncertainties of COVID-19, our team was asked to work from home. It has now been over two and a half months, and we are gradually bringing them back into our new office space. We are currently operating with a minimum amount of staff at our physical office and will continue to monitor COVID-19 before allowing our full team to return. Our team’s and client’s health are of greatest importance, and we will continue to follow the Recommended Health Protocols for businesses in Texas, as well as implement our own safety measures.

We can assure our clients, as well as our team that the following procedures will be taken until further notice:

First and foremost, any employee who feels ill will be asked to stay home to prevent spreading germs in the office.

Encouraging remote work if possible or providing a more isolated working environment within the office.

Social distancing, and increasing disinfection and sanitization frequency in high-touch areas in the workplace.

Supporting client and employee hygiene by keeping masks, gloves, tissues, hand sanitizer, soap, and disinfectant wipes readily available to all.

Daily staff temperature checks.

Contact tracing to help track, report and isolate cases of coronavirus should it affect anyone in the office or building.

 

Have questions or concerns? Please contact our office at (956) 267-8130.
