As a<br \/>\nresult, we had already discontinued all international travel a while ago and we are now<br \/>\nalso discontinuing cross border travel to\/from the USA and Canada due to the closure of<br \/>\nthe Canada\/USA border to all but essential travel. In addition, to keep our staff and<br \/>\ncustomers safe, we have also taken added precautions to restrict visits to our premises<br \/>\nby not allowing visitors that have travelled outside of the country in the last 14 days.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing that life must go on and our customers still need to do business, we want you<br \/>\nto know that we will continue to provide the services you need. Our test laboratories will<br \/>\ncontinue to operate, and our field evaluation\/certification inspectors will still perform<br \/>\ninspections subject to your Health &amp; Safety Procedures related to COVID-19. In some<br \/>\ncases, the inspection can be done remotely by sending your equipment to our QPS Test<br \/>\nLab for inspection.<\/p>\n<p>Factory Inspectors will also continue to perform required inspections subject to the<br \/>\ntravel restrictions of the country where the factory is located and also in accordance with<br \/>\nour travel policies and our customers\u2019 Health &amp; Safety procedures surrounding COVID-<br \/>\n19. Inspections which are required to be postponed will not affect the Certification status<br \/>\nof our customers.<\/p>\n<p>In an effort to adhere to social distancing, we are arranging for some of our office staff<br \/>\nto work from home during this time, however customers will not see any disruption in<br \/>\nservices. Overall, our staff are committed to providing you with the best service<br \/>\npossible.<\/p>\n<p>We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your business. We hope that<br \/>\nyou, your company and your family stay safe and well during this unprecedented time.<\/p>\n<p>John Gulino P.
