Face mask obligation and distance rule expired

A number of previously announced relaxations of corona measures will take effect from 25 February 2022. In concrete terms, this concerns the expiry of the distance rules and the mouth cap obligation. Within Aeres this means that:

  • The mask obligation at all Aeres locations has been canceled. The advice remains to wear a face mask in situations where keeping a distance of 1.5 meters is not possible, but everyone can weigh this up for themselves;
  • The obligation to keep a distance of one and a half meters has been canceled at all Aeres locations.

Precautions for all Aeres sites
A number of precautions continue to apply:

  • Maximum ventilation is provided in the buildings;
  • In addition to physical education, other working activities can also take place on location. For these other working activities the advice still applies, if possible, to do this on location for a maximum of 50% of the working time. Employees coordinate this with their manager.
  • Aeres calls on everyone to continue to observe the basic rules:

o stay home if you have flu or cold symptoms (and test yourself or have yourself tested);
o wash your hands regularly;
o sneezing and coughing in the elbows;
o do not shake hands;
o give each other space where possible.

General information

Attention: this information has been updated on Monday August 23, 2021.

In December 2019 the outbreak of the coronavirus started in the Wuhan region in China. Since then it is detected in many countries and measures are taken worldwide to prevent the coronavirus from further spreading. Aeres is following the national guidelines of the Ministery of Foreign Affairs (travel advice) and the RIVM, the national Institute for Public Health and the Environment.

Important information about the coronavirus and, more specific, the measures Aeres takes in case of emergency, will be shared on this page. All Aeres schools and locations follow these guidelines and measures.

Contagiousness and symptoms

Patients infected with the coronavirus have a fever and respiratory symptoms, such as a cough, shortness of breath and pneumonia. 

Prevent infection or virus spreading:

  • wash your hands on a regularly basis;
  • sneeze or cough in your elbow, not in your hands;
  • use paper tissues;
  • don’t shake hands;
  • stay at home when you show cold or flu symptoms.

Contact your GP (doctor’s office) if:
you have a fever above 38 degrees with respiratory symptoms (coughing or shortness of breath)

DO NOT visit the GP (doctor’s office) but contact them by phone and follow their instructions.

Visit the website of the RIVM for more information.

Travellers

Aeres also follows the advice of the Dutch government with regard to its travel policy. As a result, it is currently possible to travel for work or study to countries designated by the government with the codes 'green' or 'yellow' at the time of departure. There is no travel to countries with the red or orange codes. An up-to-date overview of the color codes per country can be found here.
For students who are staying abroad, or who have booked a trip, they themselves bear the risk with regard to any costs when the code of a country changes from green or yellow to red or orange.
