New government guidelines in connection with Covid-19

Recently, the Colombian Government decided to adopt the following measures in relation to the Covid-19 pandemic:

• Extend the sanitary emergency until April 30, 2022.

In consequence, the “Home-office” regulations are applicable until April 30, 2022.

However, in those cases in which it has been decided to implement hybrid work models (face-to-face work and remote work) or remote work modality indefinitely, we suggest initiating the pertinent actions to properly implement the Teletrabajo.

• Suspend the mandatory use of face masks in outdoors spaces in the cities where 70% or more of its population has a complete Covid-19 vaccination plan.

This measure applies only to outdoor activities, so the use of face masks will continue to be mandatory in closed spaces and on public transportation.

Should you have any doubts or questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
