Putting You First Inspite of COVID-19
With COVID-19 causing unforeseen disruption to well laid out plans for the year, we at FirstBank would like to reassure you that we care for you and have your best interests at heart.
Safety First
We have followed best practice international protocols including the recommended health and safety measures by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and the Nigeria Center for Disease Control (NCDC) for keeping our space safe for our staff and customers.
To gain access to any of our business premises, all staff and visitors undergo temperature screening and are required to either use the hand sanitizers we provide or wash their hands with water and soap for 20 seconds.
Updated Safety Protocols
From Monday 23rd March, we will be asking non-essential visitors to our offices to contact us through other digital and online means like telephone, online meetings, teleconferencing and others.
Our branches would remain open, however, only a limited number of customers would be allowed in at a time in line with social distancing guidelines.
Business Continuity
Like yourselves, we are actively monitoring developments globally and locally around COVID-19 and we commend responses by responsible authorities. Here in Nigeria, we are thankful for the good work being done by the government and the people. But we know that if we must limit the spread of the virus, we must intensify efforts across board. In putting You First therefore, we have further taken the following steps:
- Optimized our digital banking channels to cater for more transactions
- Suspended all local and international travel for our staff.
- Issued guidelines to staff who recently returned from or have family members returning from local or international trips to self-quarantine and self-report, in line with approved WHO and NCDC guidelines.
- Made sure our Medical Adviser is available 24/7 to advise and/or attend to staff who may have flu-like symptoms. We urge the general public to also advantage of available public resources if you feel unwell.
