ZEMA: SUPPORTING THE FIGHT AGAINST COVID-19
THROUGH VARIOUS MEASURES
For public health, here is a reminder of some prescribed
preventive measures:
• Wash your hands regularly with soap and
water or use an alcohol-based hand rub
(hand sanitizer);
• Avoid close contact with anyone with cold or
flu-like symptoms;
In line with government’s guidelines for COVID-19
prevention, ZEMA has put in place operational measures
to comply with health procedures as stipulated
in Statutory Instrument No. 21 and 22 of 2020.
Some of the measures include encouraging clients
and members of the public in general to use online
platforms for accessing services offered by the Agency.
• Cook meat, eggs and other animal products
thoroughly before eating;
• Cover your nose and mouth with flexed
elbow or tissue when coughing or sneezing
and throw tissue in a bin;
• Wear a mask whenever in public; and
• Stay at home.
In a further move to safeguard employee health
and the public, the Agency launched the screening
(checking temperature based on the Ministry of
Health guidelines) for all entrants to its premises.
