Above all, we hope this message finds you, your families, and loved ones in good health and safety. We are dedicated to conducting our business in absolute compliance with the CDC guidelines so coming to work is secure as possible. We wanted to reach out to let you know step-by-step how we will ensure the health of everyone within and beyond the dealership walls.Â
Health and safety first. We urge that all employees stay home if they experience any symptoms. We have also kindly asked all staff members to refrain from shaking hands and to maintain a safe distance.
Glove service. Every Sales Associate, Technician, Valet, and Lot Attendant will be given gloves and will have a fresh set for each vehicle serviced. Gloves will be made available when entering the dealership.
Everyone will do their part. We ask you to take responsibility to clean and disinfect your dedicated area multiple times a day–this includes light switches, desks, chairs and computer accessories.Â
If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact your GM or manager. We will be intensely monitoring for any updates on laws, codes, and guidelines via the CDC.Â
