Covid-19

Unsurprisingly, the Covid-19 crisis also had a major impact on employees and management in 2020 and demanded maximum adaptability. The priority was and remains the health of employees and the prevention measures necessary to minimise the risks of Covid-19 infection. In this context, hygiene measures were taken at project locations and Unica offices, employees were mandated to work from home and quarantine if they had even mild symptoms, and back-office employees worked from home as much as possible. During 2020, employees were kept well-informed about the measures by the Crisis Management Team (CMT) and management was instructed to give employees as much personal attention as possible and show understanding for difficult or mournful situations. Covid-19 has therefore played a role in almost every topic mentioned in this chapter.
