The Japanese Society of Travel and Health (JSTH) and the Japanese Society for Occupational Health (JSOH) have compiled "Novel Coronavirus Information" together as a joint document, which has been shared with the public on their respective websites since February 2020. In May 11, 2020, this document was to be published as "A Guide for Businesses and Employers Responding to Novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19)" (hereinafter referred to as "this Guide"). This Guide was prepared for persons in charge of COVID-19 control measures in their workplace. It should be used at the discretion of each business operator according to their workplace environment. The examples of infection control measures shown in this Guide are not guaranteed to work for all situations, and they do not limit or bind actual measures being put in place. When selecting actual measures, it is necessary to obtain new information and thoroughly understand individual cases and situations. This Guide was prepared based on findings and reports about the virus and response measures taken by the relevant ministries (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, etc.) that could be confirmed as of December 15, 2020. Therefore, the contents of this Guide may need to be modified in the future, depending on changes in the situations mentioned above. In the preparation of this Guide, every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of currently obtainable information. However, neither JSTH or JSOH shall be held liable for any unfavorable circumstance, such as loss and damage (including lost profits and various expenses), harmful rumors, etc. experienced by a business operator, his/her employees, and any other persons concerned as a result of various measures considered/implemented using this Guide by persons responsible for infection control in the workplace.
日本旅行与健康协会(JSTH)和日本职业健康协会(JSOH)共同编制了一份联合文件《新型冠状病毒信息》,自2020年2月起在各自网站上向公众发布。2020年5月11日,该文件拟作为《企业和雇主应对新型冠状病毒病(COVID-19)指南》(以下简称“本指南”)发布。本指南是为工作场所负责COVID-19防控措施的人员编写的。各企业经营者应根据其工作场所环境自行决定是否使用。本指南中所示的感染控制措施示例并非适用于所有情况,也不限制或约束正在实施的实际措施。在选择实际措施时,有必要获取新信息并充分了解个别案例和情况。本指南是根据截至2020年12月15日可确认的有关该病毒的调查结果和报告以及相关部委(厚生劳动省、外务省等)采取的应对措施编写的。因此,本指南的内容可能会根据上述情况的变化在未来进行修改。在编写本指南时,已尽一切努力确保当前可获取信息的准确性。但是,对于工作场所感染控制负责人使用本指南考虑/实施的各种措施导致企业经营者、其员工及任何其他相关人员所经历的任何不利情况,如损失和损害(包括利润损失和各种费用)、有害谣言等,JSTH和JSOH均不承担责任。
