Today, the team is facing a much different kind of storm in the form of a global health crisis, requiring every effort to manage through it with health and safety as a priority.<\/p>\n<p>The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is one of the biggest events in history, and at the writing of this article, the U.S. is at the center of the crisis with more people affected by the virus than any other country in the world. Michigan is one of the hardest hit regions in the U.S. \u2014 third behind New York and New Jersey, and ahead of California. The Wixom plant is located in a designated red zone as part of the Detroit region. Every U.S. state is now under a major disaster declaration requiring that residents, except for essential workers, stay at home. Hallite Americas is responding in several ways.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_11092\" style=\"width: 267px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-11092\" class=\"wp-image-11092 \" src=\"https:\/\/hallite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/US_Employees-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"257\" height=\"343\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hallite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/US_Employees-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/hallite.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/US_Employees.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 257px) 100vw, 257px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-11092\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Employees at the Wixom plant receive Infrared temperature checks before their shift begins<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Infrared temperature checks are taken on each shift. No one with virus or flu-like symptoms is allowed on-site. Social distancing, hand sanitizing, and increased\u00a0cleaning of the facilities in accordance with guidance provided by the government and healthcare authorities are in practice. More stringent controls have been added and undertaken with the return-to-work process. Only essential vendors can enter the Wixom facility and only after completing a questionnaire and temperature screening. Until further notice, staff travel to customer locations, customer visits, and visits from remote sales team members have been suspended.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are attempting to maintain business as usual while adhering to both federal and state guidelines issued to battle the spread of the virus,\u201d said Mike Baxter, Managing Director of Hallite Americas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe plant is fully operational whilst part of our office staff are working from home following the Stay-in-Place order issued by the state of Michigan. Staff working remotely have full access to our systems, which mitigates interruptions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDepending on the length of mandatory closures by government agencies, a few vendors may impact deliveries.
