Considerable time has elapsed  since our March 22 post about Covid-19 Mitigation Measures. These  measures remain in force, along with  a now mandatory facemask policy,  installation  of HEPA  air filters to reduce Aerosol transmission, and stronger guidance to conduct client meeting by telephone or Zoom whenever possible, rather than in-person.

In the month of September, due to the  improving Covid-19 situation  at that time our staff returned to working mainly  from the office rather than from home.   Being an accounting firm we are considered to be an essential service, and as such are allowed to continue our operations. However,  in view of the current  Covid-19 situation in Toronto , we have more recently  returned to working primarily from home  in order to minimize the risk of Covid -19 transmission among our staff  at the office

Our staff are all equipped to respond to emails and access our client data files remotely using VPN, but they   still do drop in at the office  from time to time, to pick up paper mail, to pick up and drop off  other papers, and to do photocopying , scanning, printing  and filing.

Our clients  are encouraged to send correspondence and  other materials by email as much as possible.    However,  paper-based  mail and other written  materials can be dropped off during regular business hours  in the drop-box located at our main office entrance.

Our business telephone number remains   operational and calls to the office number are answered  remotely by our office manager  Jenny when she is working from home.
