COVID-19 UPDATES

Morning neighbours and friends of Catena Jobs Plus.


With everyday we are facing more changes and challenges in this ever changing COVID world. 


Please rest assured that we are doing what we can to flatten the curve. We have had to change the daily routine and setup of the center. We have currently entered Phase two of our re-opening plan and please follow our blog or Facebook page for further updates.   


 We are practicing social distancing, cleaning and sanitizing and working from our individual offices while on site. 

 Upon arrival all visitors will be required to fill out a self assessment check and mask are mandatory in certain parts of the building. Disposable masks are available for $2.


If you have any questions, or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us by phone or any of our social media platforms. We are here for our clients, employees and our community. Together, even from 6 feet apart, we can get through this.


Thank you,
Debbi Green
