To our clients, colleagues, and community; Throughout the developments of the COVID-19 pandemic, the health and safety of our community has remained paramount. In a prudent effort to meet our social responsibility to mitigate the spread of COVID- 19, Jolette Financial has adopted new office protocols and controls in our return to the workplace and reopening of the office to the public.

Precautionary Measures

4. Duration of exchange – eliminating or limiting prolonged periods of close contact*.

*Close contact is considered personal interactions that break the two-meter guidelines for physical distancing or contact in a confined space (boardroom) for prolonged periods of time. In these situations, the use of PPE (facemasks) is mandatory for both employees and clients. Jolette Financial has also increased its cleaning and disinfecting practices within the office. This includes special treatment of workstations, high contact areas, and shared or common spaces.
