A Note From Our CEO

March 24, 2020

To our valued  Ellison  customers,  

We  appreciate  that these are  uncertain  times for our customers, our employees and our wider communities.  The health and safety of both our staff and valued customers are our top priority and at the core of every decision we make.   

We have been closely monitoring the Coronavirus (COVID-19) situation as it  unfolds.  As a business, we believe that it is crucial  we support government guidelines in  helping the reduction  of  the transmission.   

We are diligently following guidance and best practice from the government in order to protect both our employees and our customers.  At this time, we  have  made changes to our daily  routines, including:  

  • Supporting employees  in  working remotely  as per recent Government mandates  
  • Promotion of personal space observation  in regard  to  client, vendor, and site to site  travel  
  • Until further notice, travel suspensions are in place for all international and domestic trips. This will impact in-person meetings with customers and vendors; however, tools are already in place and being utilized daily to conduct virtual meetings via Go-To Meeting and Skype   
  • The Human Resources team is working with staff on any anticipated personal travel and asking that it be reconsidered to any designated “Hot Spots”.   

The  executive team  will continue to  monitor and  expand on these preventative measures in order to protect both our staff and our customers.   

We will continue to work collaboratively with our partners to ensure a ‘business as usual’ approach where  possible.  

We will continue to follow Government mandates and initiatives  as long as  it is deemed necessary to do so in order to protect both our teams, valued partners and loyal customers.  

I would  like to take a moment to  thank our colleagues for their incredible efforts during these unprecedented times.  The dedication and commitment they have shown is truly inspiring.  

And to our customers, thank you for your continued support.  It is  challenging  times like these that we cannot underestimate the collective power of standing side by side, working together and supporting one another.   

You have our commitment that we will continue to work tirelessly to minimise disruption to our services at what is an uncertain time for all.  

We will continue to serve you with  a host of  creative content and inspiration delivered through our online channels. We hope that this source of inspiration can offer comfort during this  difficult  time and if nothing else will give you a break from the news.   

Take care of yourselves and of each other,   

Richard Birse  

CEO and Global Board Member
