We are now at Alert Level Orange in the Government’s Covid Protection Framework.
At orange there are no number limits for outdoor or indoor gatherings.
Face masks continue to be an important protection and are required for many indoor settings but not when outdoors.
Next to vaccination and being boosted, the Government says a face mask at orange is the best defence against Covid and can reduce new cases by around 50%.
It you or someone in your house gets Covid, you still have to self-isolate for seven days.
Keep up the healthy hygiene, for example one metre physical distance when in social situations and wash your hands often.
Vaccine passes: We removed vaccine passes at most of our facilities from Monday 28 March.
Vaccine mandates: The majority of the government imposed mandates were lifted on April 4th. Over recent weeks, we have consulted with all affected staff covered by our previous decision on mandated roles.
From Tuesday 19 April we will be removing the requirement for vaccine mandates for the majority of roles previously covered. We are retaining mandates for a small number of critical services and those staff are aware of this.
TRAFFIC LIGHT SYSTEM
The system sets different rules for Green, Orange and Red levels:
Green – limited community cases and the health system is ready to respond.
Orange – cases are rising and the health system is under pressure.
Red – we need to protect at-risk people and prevent hospitals being overrun with cases.
Full details on the traffic light system are here on the Government’s Covid website.

Office based staff have been directed to work from home wherever possible.
