Tue 09 Jun 2020, 11:43:19
A GHMC employee working in the corporation’s head office tested positive for the coronavirus, following which employees in a few sections on the fourth floor had to be evacuated and the entire floor disinfected.

The 39-year-old employee is a junior assistant in the solid waste management section. Soon after learning about the employee’s test results, officials directed other staffers in the section and the adjacent sections on the floor to vacate their desks and sprayed sodium hypochlorite. The employees have been directed to report to duties on Wednesday.

Last week, the employee was down with fever and was absent for duty since Thursday. He underwent a



coronavirus test at Fever Hospital on Sunday morning voluntarily and the results, which came on Monday, showed him to be positive. He is presently undergoing treatment at Gandhi Hospital. It was learned that his wife was a nurse working in a government hospital, and officials were now tracking his primary contacts, besides taking up other measures, a GHMC official said.

Save for giving hand sanitiser, security guards at the head office do not conduct thermal screening for visitors or employees turning up to work. However, officials claimed thermal screening was being conducted for all persons, including employees, at the entrance of the office.
