COVID-19: Remote Work Update For Employees

The following is a message sent by the Office of Human Resources to campus on March 16, 2020.

As the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) impacts the United States and countries around the world, Wittenberg is monitoring this evolving situation closely. Our top priorities are the support, safety and service of our students, faculty, staff and surrounding community. Although at this time we have no cases reported from our Wittenberg community, it is a question of when, not if, that will occur.

We have enacted CDC-recommended social distancing practices across the Wittenberg campus to prevent the spread of disease. We also continue to highly encourage remote work wherever possible.

At this time, all employees should be working with their supervisor to identify how they can work remotely. Only those for whom it is deemed absolutely necessary should be working on campus.

We will continue to monitor COVID-19 and keep you informed. For access to the latest resources and guidance from Wittenberg, please visit our COVID-19 health advisory resource page. While we continue to serve and support you, we thank you for your help and understanding as we take the necessary precautions for the well-being of our students, colleagues and community at large.
