Norfolk Naval Shipyard makes improvements to enhanced screening procedures

Norfolk Naval Shipyard (NNSY) began enhanced screening procedures April 22 for entering the installation, with personnel taking temperatures and asking questions to ensure employees are not exhibiting any symptoms or at increased risk for having COVID-19. Now in its second full week, refinements continue to be made to the enhanced screening process, both to improve the entry process for employees and to assist supervisors in the event personnel are denied access. In addition to NNSY implementing the self-screening website created by its Nuclear Corporate Training Initiatives Division (Code 2360), the Duty Office has been sending out information via AtHoc, providing employees real-time updates on their phones for traffic status at all gates, helping them adjust their plans for entry accordingly.
