Updated International Travel Guidance

The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has changed its guidance about international travel, no longer requiring quarantine upon return. As a result, the company will not be requiring quarantine for personal domestic or international travel (international business travel remains restricted, and only essential domestic business travel is allowed).

However, do keep in mind that some states still have restrictions on who can enter their jurisdiction from various COVID-19 hotspots. While essential workers generally are exempt, different requirements may apply for personal (vs. work) travel. Do be sure to check the rules for the state in which you live (for any quarantine upon return) or for states you might be visiting. We encourage you to avoid traveling to COVID-19 hotspots, whenever possible. As always, do contact OHS if you've had a confirmed test or exposure to someone who has or is suspected of having the virus while you were traveling. When planning personal international travel, do contact  travelsafely@exeloncorp.com prior to your departure in order to verify remote access and device restrictions for your foreign travel destination(s).

Enhanced HR Portal Security

As cyberattacks continue to increase, it's more important than ever to safeguard access to your sensitive information. That's why beginning Aug. 26, the first time you access the HR Services Portal through the Exelon network using single sign-on or directly at hrservices.exeloncorp.com, you will be required to create a password or reset your existing password to meet stricter length and complexity requirements. You also will be prompted to choose and answer security questions if you haven't already done so. Don't worry—this is a one-time requirement. Regular single sign-on access will resume after establishing your new password. Should you need to access the HR Services Portal outside the company network, your newly created password will be required.

Don't Slip, Trip or Fall!

The pandemic is scary, but other hazards haven't disappeared.  Each year, slips, trips and falls are the number one cause of injury in the workplace nationwide.

Working from home during COVID-19 doesn't mean you're in the clear (ever pay attention to your phone instead of where you're walking?). Do protect yourself from slips, trips and falls by following these precautions (at home, on the job site, or anywhere really!):

• Wear safe footwear with proper traction
• Never look at your phone while walking; stop and put your back to a wall to send a text, email, etc.
• Have clearly defined walking paths
• Clear walking paths of cords and clutter
• Use three points of contact if you need to ascend/descend even just one step or on uneven surfaces
• Do not try and carry more than you can handle; take multiple trips
