COVID-19 Announcement

/

Green Leaf Tree Services Ltd prides itself on delivering excellent service and expertise to its customers, with the safety of our stakeholders as our cornerstone. Our stakeholders are not just our clients, but also our team, neighbours, families, suppliers, fellow industry professionals, and our home communities. We feel that it is our responsibility to limit the risk of exposure to COVID-19 for everyone by taking steps to reduce risk and limit contact while still providing the same excellent service our clients have come to rely on.

Because we work outside, arborists are at a low risk threshold for the spread of COVID-19. This is a result of the ability to distance ourselves from our clients and co-workers in the normal course of work, and we do not spend extended periods in close contact.

In order to further reduce our risks, we are implementing some new policy changes immediately:

  • Any employee may self-isolate if they feel they cannot practice adequate social distancing in the normal course of work, for whatever reason.

  • Employees are on a voluntary lay-off mode due to the lack of regular work.

  • Workers arriving on-site may take multiple Green Leaf Tree Services vehicles to ensure adequate social distancing and non-contact.

  • Hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipes is provided in all work vehicles, and employees will be instructed on proper hand-washing techniques.

  • Clients will be contacted via phone or email, rather than at the door if possible.

  • Clients also have the right to decline our services should they wish.

  • Employees are being asked to practice social distancing and risk-reducing hygiene at home and to extend this to their families as well.

All of our policies will be assessed on a daily basis to ensure we are doing our utmost to protect everyone’s safety. We will continue to adapt our policies and practices to adhere to the Government's recommendations and will keep our clients notified of any major changes to our services.

Let’s all do our best to keep ourselves and each other safe.
