The Federal Council still classifies the situation in Switzerland as an exceptional situation under the Epidemics Act. Nevertheless, it is now gradually relaxing the measures – while strictly observing protective measures. From 27 April 2020, hospitals will be able to carry out all interventions and medical practices, hairdressing, massage and cosmetic studios, DIY stores, garden centres, flower shops and nurseries will be able to resume operations. Protecting the health of the population remains the top priority, while at the same time keeping economic damage to a minimum.
We in the Schneider Group continue to comply with government recommendations, which means that a large proportion of our employees work in their home offices. Our branches around the world can be reached without any restrictions by telephone and e-mail during normal office hours. We would like to thank our employees, customers and partners around the world for their trusting and successful cooperation even in these difficult times.
