Important Measures
FSC coordinates with relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions on entry at banks and insurance enterprises
2020-07-13
The Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC) announced that rules regarding COVID-19 prevention measures would be relaxed, beginning from 7 June 2020, so the FSC coordinated this announcement (as well as suggestions put forward by the ROC Bankers Association and the ROC Life and Non-Life Insurance Associations) by announcing on 10 June 2020 that it would relax COVID-19 restrictions (previously adopted on 20 April and 13 May, respectively) on persons seeking to enter banks and insurance enterprises. Whereas the rules adopted in April and May made it compulsory for those entering banks or insurance enterprises to wear a face mask and have their temperature taken, the FSC has now decided to allow banks and insurers to exercise “self-management” in line with COVID-19 prevention measures that the CECC has recommended for the general public. The ROC Bankers Association and the ROC Life and Non-Life Insurance Associations discussed the matter and recommended that persons seeking to enter banks and insurance companies should still have their temperature taken, but need not wear face masks if they can observe the CECC''s social distancing guidelines.
