The Green Pass for Covid safety offers the best opportunity back to safe, effective and productive team-building in 2022.
Companies have been badly affected by the lack of staff interaction. It has been necessary to isolate employees during this pandemic, and home-working has had myriad benefits for family life and work-life balance. But the genuine need for colleagues to build trust and rapport has paid a price. Here's where the Green Pass offers a way forward.
A Green Pass certificate, which comes in digital or paper versions, shows that people have been vaccinated, tested negative or recovered from Covid-19. EU Member States' passes are mutually recognised, and even non-EU states such as the UK, US and Israel now have mutual recognition arrangements to ensure their citizens' passes are widely accepted.
Each country decides the rules for Green Pass use. In Italy for example, almost all indoor food and entertainment venues must ask clients to show their passes. People just having a coffee in a cafe or bar, however, are exempt. In Monaco, simply arriving in the principality (by sea, rail, road or helicopter) requires showing a pass. In France, long-distance train journeys require a pass, but regional and commuter trains do not.
Requiring Green Passes should not be seen as a burden or hinderance, but rather as a passport to freedom, particularly for travellers and for companies wanting to reunite and reward their staff with a corporate retreat in 2022. Green Pass retreats offer managers the confidence to book retreats knowing that they are being responsible and are doing all they reasonably can do to keep their staff safe and motivated.
Here at Riviera Route, we ask all retreat participants to have Green Passes. All our staff and contractors must have them too. This is not simply about safety - it is also corporate responsibility, both for us and our staff, and for our clients and partners.
We will work with partners to make sure all precautions are taken on your trip. Rapid lateral-flow covid tests can be provided to keep track of the health of all participants, before and during your retreat. The normal precautions - masks where appropriate, social distance and hygiene, still apply. Above all, the Riviera's dry, sunny climate is perfect for scheduling outdoor activities, to help your team re-connect with each other safely.
We're looking forward to welcoming clients, old and new, back to the sunny Riviera in 2022. The Green Pass is a passport back to meaningful connections, for all of us.
