As the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) continues to rise,
we are writing to update you on the steps Field Law is taking to
ensure the well-being of our employees, clients, and our community.
We continue to monitor updates from Alberta Health Services (AHS)
and NWT Health and Social Services. Their recommendations for the
elimination of non-essential travel and increased social distancing
appear to be critical factors in helping “flatten the
curve” and slow the transmission of the virus.
Effective March 17, 2020, we are treating the daily commute to
the office as non-essential travel and have instructed our
employees to work remotely if they can do so until further
notice.
We are not aware of any positive COVID-19 cases in our offices
or among Firm members or their families, but are taking these
actions to protect the Firm, and, as a matter of public health, to
slow the spread of the coronavirus.
