For at-risk employees (front desk section, working with guests every day, etc.), performing SARS-CoV-2 screening test by rapid antigen test or RT-PCR method weekly for at least 20% of employees.
For employees going on business trips, especially those going to, from and returning from pandemic areas, performing SARS-COV-2 test by antigen rapid test or RT-PCR method before and after going on a business trip within 3 days (72 hours) from the time of going on a business trip or returning to the unit or according to other regulations of the National Steering Committee for Covid-19 Prevention and Control and the Ministry of Health.

Notify all employees present at the unit not to move arbitrarily, seriously make health declaration, and implement 5K.
Divide groups and separate areas for F1, F2 to prepare for taking samples for testing and medical quarantine.
After cleaning and disinfecting, the unit continues to operate normally from the next day.
