COVID-19 Communication Update

Rescar and AllTranstek’s Senior Management continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation on a daily basis, evaluate and adjust impacts on our business operations, resources, and processes accordingly.
 
For those of you on the front line, our tremendous Field Services personnel, the job you are doing is truly exceptional and inspiring. YOU ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE FOR ALL AMERICANS!
 
We need to be diligent and all employees need to continue to follow the safe hygiene practices we have implemented and posted on the website for you, and those adopted by our customers. In addition, going forward:

• You may be asked to fill out a “wellness” form or have your temperature taken before being allowed to enter a customer’s work site. 
• We will also be doing temperature checks before beginning work starting this week. Please understand these forms and temperature checks are intended to ensure everyone’s safety. 
• We ask you to cooperate with any such customer processes as well as Rescar/AllTranstek procedures in this regard.

REMEMBER, for the safety of everyone, employees that are sick should not come in to work.

Again, thank you all for your continued effort and dedication. 

COMPANY UPDATES
Important employee information, memos, updates, and resource materials are and will continue to be posted on the Company websites:

• AllTranstek employees at www.alltranstek.com/covid19
• Rescar employees at www.rescar.com/covid19

Employees are encouraged to check these sites frequently for important updates and helpful information.
 
HEALTH TRACKING LOG
A Health Tracking Log has been implemented to track all illnesses company-wide.  The log will be utilized to keep us informed of situations where there is an actual or potential exposure to COVID-19. Currently, and thankfully, we have no known work exposures at this time.
 
SHELTER IN PLACE
Many of you are now in states with “shelter in place” or similar orders and, as we mentioned in our last communication over the weekend, government and law enforcement officials have confirmed that there are many necessary exceptions to these orders including grocery stores, pharmacies, medical facilities, even restaurants for carry out.
 
Travel to and for these basic life needs is still permitted.  The rail transportation industry is part of the Nation’s “critical infrastructure” and, therefore, Rescar/AllTranstek, have also been deemed an “essential business.” We have provided a letter regarding this Essential Business Designation you should keep with you and that is also posted on the Company websites.  
 
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
For those that are working remotely, or those in the field with the new laptops or other equipment, if you are experiencing any connectivity or other system problems, please report the same to your supervisor immediately so we can troubleshoot and maintain maximum system availability.
