  3. IMU and the New...

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a strain of coronavirus that has not been previously identified. Not all people will have the same symptoms as it affects different people in different ways. As we strive to keep safe and welcome you back on campus, we would like for you to go through what the New Normal at IMU will be like and how you can play a part in keeping your campus, family, friends and communities safe from this pandemic.

Please familiarise yourself with the IMU Group’s Standard Operation Procedures (SOPs) for the New Normal. These SOPs will be updated from time to time.

Health and Safety Guidelines

The following safety guidelines and SOPs have been put in place by the University in which all students and staff alike are responsible to practise and maintain the safety and wellbeing of our community together.

For easy reference on the Guidelines, please click on the respective videos to view.

Watch the Videos!

We are in this Together

Maintaining Personal Hygiene

Maintaining good personal hygiene is essential in this New Normal. Remember, one of the key preventative measure during this pandemic is to wash your hands with soap and water or use hand sanitiser frequently. Don’t touch your eyes, nose or mouth if your hands are not cleaned. It is also important to know how to wear, remove and dispose a mask properly.

Physical / Social Distancing

Prevention is better than cure. Maintaining a physical distance of at least 1-2 metres from other people may be effective at reducing transmission of both droplets and airborne spread of communicable disease.

Disinfecting Your Workstation / Workspace

It is important for all of us to play our part to maintain a safe and conducive environment on campus/office. While overall cleaning and disinfection of the premise and high touch point areas have increased, we need to be responsible for our workspace/areas used. Cleaning before and after use of the space will help prevent the spread of communicable diseases. So let’s all do our part!

3C’s and 3W’s Guidelines

To reinforce the above, Ministry of Health Malaysia has also shared the 3C’s and 3W’s guideline as below:

  1. 3C – Practise physical distancing, and AVOID:
    • CROWDED Place
    • CONFINED Space
    • CLOSE Conversation
  2. 3W – Maintain good personal hygiene and FREQUENTLY:
    • WASH hands with soap and water,
    • WEAR face mask especially in public places or when encountering people who are having fever and flu,
    • WARN – practise caution by avoiding handshakes, practice cough and sneeze etiquette, stay at home and seek medical treatment if you are not well

 

Remember, do not touch your face – eyes, nose or mouth if your hands are not cleaned or sanitised. If you are unwell and have flu-like symptoms, please do a self-test, update your programme director (for students) or HOD (for staff) and avoid coming to campus.

Community Engagement Guidelines

The ever-changing landscape of the Covid-19 pandemic has led us to a frequent change in SOPs that is now our new normal.  In this context, our community engagement efforts serve to address and prevent health and other social inequities which is standing out more prominently since the start of the pandemic.

 

For the IMU teams involved in or embarking on community engagement work, please contact the IMU Community Engagement department at [email protected] for the latest guide on how to provide support to the communities.
