Fwd: TCS Office Rotation Plan Approved
by Habib, Salman 30 Jun '20

30 Jun '20

To all those who will be returning to the Lab starting July 6: Please follow the rotation strictly and note that the offices have to be cleaned and disinfected after use; people working in open areas may be relocated. AFAIK, the CPS people returning in Wave 1 are: * Shashi Aithal (Tu, W) * Salman Habib (M, W) * Wei Jiang (M, Tu, W, Th, F) * Xiaoyong Jin (M, W, F) * Amanda Lund (Tu) * Aleks Obabko (Tu, Th) * Ron Rahaman (M, W, F) * Hyeondeok Shin (Tu, Th) If your name is not here and you would like to come back to work on a regular basis, do let me know. (In general, though, prudence remains a good idea.) Best Salman -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: TCS Office Rotation Plan Approved Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2020 22:59:39 +0000 From: Hodge, Devin S. <DHodge(a)anl.gov><mailto:[email protected]> To: Hodge, Devin S. <DHodge(a)anl.gov><mailto:[email protected]> All, We’ve received approval from Lab Management to move forward with our TCS office rotation plan, to commence implementation next Monday, July 6th! As a summary, office rotation interest was expressed by over 20% of current building occupants and we attempted to accommodate all that showed interest, resulting in a daily building population due to office rotations as follows: Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday 65 89 83 77 56 I am attaching three files for your review. It is important that you review these files to 1) know what to expect when you come back, 2) know and adhere to your office rotation day(s), and 3) have awareness of those around you and the building density. Specifics for each: 1. What to Know and Expect document (e.g. daily self-checks, disinfection, signage, common spaces, etc.) 2. Office Rotation spreadsheet stating which day(s) of the week you are scheduled * If your office location is highlighted in yellow on the spreadsheet, you have a temporary office location since accommodating your existing location was impractical considering our guiding principles and COVID controls 3. Office Rotation Floor Plans – a visual depiction of the rotation spreadsheet as an awareness tool of your area/floor density When you come to the site, security will scan your badge at the gate and you will need to have a face covering while onsite (but not while sitting at your desk). It is important to note, if you haven’t already done so, please complete the COVID100 course in TMS prior to coming onsite. We tried our very best to accommodate your preferences but in a few cases had to make day adjustments to accommodate shared office, cubicle and open space rotations. If you would like to request adjustments, please send an email to dhodge(a)anl.gov<mailto:[email protected]>, cc-ing stickels(a)anl.gov<mailto:[email protected]>. Note, for your colleagues that haven’t requested an office rotation, please know that the day passes are still being offered for short (< 1 day) office visits to pick up equipment, books, supplies, etc. Thanks and your feedback is welcome, Devin Hodge Argonne National Laboratory Chief Operations Officer Computing, Environment and Life Sciences Directorate 9700 S.

Virgin Pulse Opportunities
by Tezak, Samantha L. 29 Jun '20

29 Jun '20

Good afternoon CPS, There are some updates to be aware of regarding Virgin Pulse points for the rest of this year. If you haven’t reached your 80,000 points yet, see below for ways of earning points. HEW is unable to offer Health Screenings or Voluntary Physicals in the clinic for the remainder of the fiscal year. If they receive Health Screening forms completed by outside doctors’ offices, they will accept them, but they discourage anyone from making a special trip to an outside healthcare office to get a screening. What about the 20,000 Virgin Pulse points for the Health Screenings, you ask? Don’t worry! If you have already earned them they are yours. If not, watch for many new (and easy) point-earning opportunities coming soon to help offset the Health Screening, including 10,000 points for the Argonne Health Pact. Join the Argonne Health Pact and earn 10,000 points. The link to the pact is in your Workday inbox. It will take up to 4-6 weeks for the points to be credited to your Virgin Pulse account. The 2020 4Life lecture, HEW113, is worth 20,000 Virgin Pulse (VP) points and can be found at: HEW113: Food for Thought: Everyday Eating for Wellness https://www.eshtraining.anl.gov/courses/HEW113/index.html The 2020 4Life lectures (1,000 VP pts for each lecture): Upcoming Blue Jeans lectures: HEW 20 Minute Seminar: Plant-Based diets July 2 12:15 pm – 12:35 pm https://bluejeans.com/167125572 Blue Jeans meeting 167 125 572 Past lectures are available online at: HEW113MAR: What to Do with a Sweet Tooth: https://apps.inside.anl.gov/que/public/item/WBT/HEW113MAR/splash HEW113FEB: Facts About Fiber: https://apps.inside.anl.gov/que/public/item/WBT/HEW113FEB/splash HEW113JAN: Plan Ahead for Healthy Meals https://apps.inside.anl.gov/que/public/item/WBT/HEW113JAN/splash HEW113DEC: Winter Weight Gain https://apps.inside.anl.gov/que/public/item/WBcT/HEW113DEC/splash HEW113NOV: Reading Food Labels November video: https://apps.inside.anl.gov/que/public/item/WBT/HEW113NOV/splash HEW113OCT: Fill Your Plate with Fall Vegetables October video: https://apps.inside.anl.gov/que/public/item/WBT/HEW113OCT/splash Watch Virgin Pulse for a Healthy Habit Challenge offered in conjunction with that month’s seminar. By practicing the healthy habit for 10 days in that month, you can earn an additional 500 points for the month! Virgin Pulse offers a health assessment tool<https://inside.anl.gov/services/health-assessments> asking you a series of questions including a heart health assessment and questions about nutrition in line with this year’s IWP focus. (10,000 VP points are awarded for completion of the assessment.) *************************************** Samantha L Tezak Executive Assistant, CPS Division Argonne National Laboratory 9700 S.
