Cough, splutter
Friday, July 6th, 2007Flu + Haze. What a combination:
Dear Colleagues
The air quality across Malaysia has deteriorated to an unhealthy level of late. According to the Meteorological Service Department Malaysia, this is due to the haze resulting from the forest-burning in a neighboring country.
Central Services Department is monitoring the situation closely and will invoke the necessary business continuity plan if the Air Pollutant Index (API) increases to hazardous levels. [We have] sufficient masks for every employee and will distribute them as and when it becomes necessary to do so. In the mean time, it is strongly recommended that employees heed the Health Ministry’s call to refrain from all out doors activities in the affected areas.
