COVID-19 Precautions and Travel

Published by TeamInsuranceBrokers on March 19 2020

With the increase in concern, and to help reduce the spread of communicable diseases and viruses including COVID-19, we at Team are taking precautions for the safety of our community.

In addition to increased attention to hand washing, and cough etiquette, Our Team is spending additional energy to clean our workstations, and common areas, and removing unnecessary items that cannot be cleaned.

Being a “retail” office location with walk in traffic, social distancing cannot be avoided 100%.  As much as possible, we will be minimizing face to face meetings, with preference to using telephone and email to communicate.

Travel medical and Trip cancellation insurance policies will not cover any travel if the government of Canada has issued a travel advisory.  Please visit their website at https://travel.gc.ca/travelling/advisories.  As of the time of this post, there is a travel advisory advising Canadians to avoid all travel on cruise ships.  Some travel insurance companies will no longer offer coverage for travelling on a Cruise Ship.  Our Team is keeping ourselves up to date with the news especially in regards to travel insurance, and the needs of our clients.  Please contact one of our Team’ers if you have any concerns you’d like to discuss.
