Hartford Steam Company has been continuously monitoring the spread of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak around the world and across the US through updates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), World Health Organization (WHO) and federal, state and local governments. Given the WHO has declared the coronavirus a pandemic and to protect the health and wellbeing of its employees and maintain critical business operations, Hartford Steam is following guidelines set by the CDC, as well as our Business Continuity Plan and has implemented the following:

• Restricted employee travel to all external meetings, effective March 12.
• Restricted visitors to the Hartford Steam facilities and cancelled all tours.
• Enhanced the cleaning protocols at our facilities, focusing on high-touch areas and hard surfaces.
• Prepared for non-essential employees to work from home, if it becomes necessary.
• Reminded employees to practice social distancing and to stay home if sick.
• Developed safeguards to minimize risk and exposure to personnel.
