The Main Things
An MSD Staff Communication that Cuts out the Clutter!
December 13th, 2021
Main Thing 1: SafeOregon
Main Thing 2: Severe Weather Protocols
Winter weather is in our forecast and we want you to be prepared! If there is a schedule change due to weather, you will be notified through a phone call, text, and an email. This is a great time to check Employee Online and make sure your contact information is correct. Don’t worry, we will NOT be switching to CDL if there is a snow day.
Main Thing 3: Happy Holidays and Thank You!
Other Things:
COVID-19 Update
We are almost two years into the COVID-19 pandemic. And while cases are trending down for our students and staff, we are obligated to remain vigilant with our safety measures. This includes the individually agreed-to mitigation measures for those staff who received an exception from the vaccine requirements. Remember that the plans were often tailored to an individual’s specific circumstances.
