What emergency planners need to know:
Your college, school or department must update your Continuity of Operations Plan to ensure it is applicable to a pandemic. University emergency planners have provided this guidance. More information about COOP planning is available by calling Essi Ellis 303-724-1031 or essi.ellis@ucdenver.edu .
An incident command structure has been established for this pandemic.
Human Resources is developing a system to track staff/faculty absences. Details to come.
Each department should determine what personal protection equipment is warranted. The university’s medical experts advise that hand sanitizers currently are the most effective precaution.
