Importance of keeping compliance with COVID-19 prevention measures

Unfortunately, the incidence rate of COVID-19 infections has increased alarmingly in Spain. For that reason, we remind you all of the importance of complying with prevention measures against COVID-19 infections.

1.- Which are the measures that I must continue to comply?

In ROVI:

·        Maintain the minimum interpersonal distance of 2 meters with your colleagues whenever possible.

·        Use mask at all times.

·        Hands hygiene.

·        Systematic and frequent ventilation of your workplace.

·        Prohibition of face-to-face meetings except in case of impossibility of executing the tasks in another way. In case they are essential to respect capacity and use of masks

·        Respect the rules on mobility between workplaces and canteens that we have established.

·        Keep isolation and quarantine when prescribed, either because you are diagnosed with Coronavirus infection (with or without symptoms), or because you have had close contact with someone with COVID-19.

In my personal life:

In addition, of all the above it is advisable to limit the number of people we meet in our social life, and choose whenever possible outdoor activities or in well-ventilated spaces.

Regarding the mask: as you know it is no longer mandatory to use the mask in open spaces, but as long as you can maintain a safe distance.

Ask yourself when this is really possible in the cities we live in. Most of the sidewalks we travel on have a distance of less than 2 meters, so it is not possible to maintain a safe distance. Be responsible and continue to wear the mask in case of any doubt of being able to keep your distance. Protect yourself and help protect others!

2.- Why is it important that you continue to comply with these measures?

Current evidence indicates that different vaccines against COVID-19 are effective in reducing symptomatic and asymptomatic infection, mild, moderate and severe disease, and mortality. However, it is known that the immunity generated by vaccines does not prevent you from getting infected again. This implies that even if vaccinated:

· You can get infected

· You can spread it to others

· The DELTA variant is more contagious and serious than the previous ones. Any oversight can make your family, friends and colleagues very sick.

For all these reasons, we ask you not to lower your guard and continue to comply as before with the prevention measures against covid-19 infections, both in Rovi and your private life.

Thank you all so much for your commitment, when you protect yourself you are protecting others!

Make your life more Cybersecure… Let’s talk about your passwords!

123456, password, julio123… Our passwords are the keys to our online life, but many times we protect our most sensitive data with passwords that are easy to predict. As a result, our information could be exposed to cybercriminals.

Fun fact… 1 in 5 corporate passwords includes the company name. ROVI123 is not a strong password!!

This month we are going to publish 2 videos that explain how to create a strong password and the risks of not managing them securely.

Tips for creating a strong password:

The mandatory use of mask in ROVI is maintained

As you may have heard in the press, the Government of Spain plans to lift the mandatory use of masks in outdoor spaces, provided that certain requirements are met.

However, for the moment in ROVI we will not apply this measure, so it will continue to be mandatory to use the mask in all ROVI facilities, regardless of whether they are indoors or outdoors.

The use of the mask is one of the most effective prevention measures against the transmission of COVID-19; hence we maintain the mandatory use of it.

Each of us must contribute to our personal protection and that of our colleagues.

Thank you all very much for the commitment you have shown to date in complying with all the measures, a commitment that we are sure will be maintained in the future.

We extend the measures until 15 September

Given the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic, we announce that the infection prevention measures established in ROVI will be extended until September 15.

In addition, we are pleased to inform you that Rovi’s forecast is to recover a greater degree of normality in its operation as of September 15. If the epidemiological situation remains in the same positive trend that has been showing in recent weeks and the national vaccination plan is fulfilled according to the established schedules, we understand that, after the return from vacation, we will be able to relax many of the measures that we currently have in force to prevent covid-19 infections, increasing our physical presence in the Rovi facilities and recovering our ordinary work dynamics.

The details of these new measures will be communicated in the first days of September.

Finally, we remember that in the ROVIRocks COVID Channel you can consult all the mandatory rules, currently in force, differentiated by type of employee.

The Environment day arrives at the Roviteca

On the occasion of World Environment Day, from the Roviteca we want to provide you with a section specialized in the environment, sustainability, and the protection of biodiversity and the reconstruction of ecosystems.

These contents will help you to become aware of how important the preservation of the environment is and how linked it is with the human being. An opportunity to learn how to be more responsible and sustainable in our day to day.

Remember that you can access this content from ROVI Rocks or download the Roviteca app to access the best books, audiobooks, magazines, videos, podcasts and courses for free. Whether it’s to disconnect, have fun or improve your skills in some field, we recommend that you take a look to see what new content there is. Here we leave you some of the new titles of the section “Environment“:

World Environment Day 2021

“Reimaging, recreate, restore”

This is the new theme of this year’s Environment Day 2021. This edition will mark the beginning of the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, a global mission to revive billions of hectares, from forests to farmland, from the top of mountains to the depths of the sea.

Investing in ecosystems is investing in our future

Restoring, reducing and mitigating the environmental impact and the consumption of resources, these are the keys to the protection of the environment. For every euro invested in catering, you can expect at least between seven and thirty Euros in profits for society. And in this part, ROVI continues to do its bit. Examples of this are:

  • This 2021 we have changed the treatment given to rejected medicines from the plants of Alcala de Henares and San Sebastian de los Reyes. It is now about energy recovery, recycling or recovery, rather than destruction. With this we continue to work on the goal of zero waste to landfill. Our goal for this year is to be able to perform this operation in 100% of the plants.
  • We continue to offset CO2 emissions from fuel consumption through VERs (voluntary emission reduction) projects, aimed at preventing deforestation, protecting biodiversity and promoting sustainability in one of the lungs of our planet, the Amazon area. This restoration work has compensated for almost 6,000 tons of CO2, which would be equivalent to avoiding the felling of 35,400 mature trees.
  • 100% of the electricity consumption of our plants is of renewable origin and, since this year, our plants in Alcala de Henares and Granada have photovoltaic power generation stations. With this, we will stop emitting about 6,400 tons of CO2 into the atmosphere

With all this action, ROVI joins the global task of reversing the damage caused, going from exploiting nature to curing it. We will continue to work year after year with the aim of achieving carbon neutrality, demonstrating their social responsibility and concern for climate change.

But this work that ROVI initiates is in everyone’s hands. Therefore, ROVI wants to involve all its employees in this change of mentality and motivate them to take it to the small gestures of the day to day. To start a purchase with a reduction of unnecessary plastics and encourage responsible consumption, ROVI gives you a sustainably produced bag, a reusable substitute for single-use bags in the supermarket. Check the email to see where to pick up yours.

It is our chance to correct course.
