Happy (almost) Spring!
Our relatively mild winter is almost over and soon we will be enjoying the green landscapes of Spring and Summer. We hope, along with the sunshine, nature will give us the benefit of health and wellbeing, which we so desperately need now.
As the world faces this pandemic, we want you to know we are taking precautions to keep our team, our clients (you!), and our community safe. Due to our small working teams (usually no more than 3 people on a crew) at Christensen Landscape Services, and the outdoor location of our work, we can minimize person to person interactions. For the immediate future we feel we can practice social distancing while working and continue to provide you with the service you have come to expect.
As a precaution, we are taking the following measures:
* We will move to digital meetings and will limit in person meetings at the office or on sites until April 13th (we will reassess at that time). Technology, Facetime, Skype, Zoom, etc will be our best friend in the coming weeks.
* Some of our office staff may be working from home but will still be able to address all your needs immediately during working hours.
* A long list of new working lifestyle and cleaning policies for hand washing, equipment and truck sanitization, steering wheels, door handles, heavy use areas, and offices daily are being put into effect.
* Our crews are instructed to remain at least 6' from any client and refrain from hand shaking. Our staff will remain a minimum of 6' away from coworkers. This may mean that personal vehicles will be on the jobsite.
* We will be staggering start times for our crews to minimize the number of employees who are loading and unloading trucks at the same time.
* All staff have been instructed to remain home if they or any of their family members have a cold, fever, or cough and have paid time off available to cover illness.
We look forward to a new normal, a renewed perspective on life, upcoming blooms and the fresh greenery of Spring.
