<p>Dear stakeholders,</p><p>As part of the national effort to step up regular testing, we would strongly encourage companies with employees that work onsite and are not already subject to mandatory RRT, to apply for 8 Antigen Rapid Test (ART) kits per onsite employee for weekly testing of your employees over a two-month period. With regular testing, companies can detect and ringfence infections early. These tests can be administered by the individuals themselves at home, or at the work premises.</p><p>For more information on the time-limited 8-weeks RRT for workplaces, please refer to the attached document. </p><p> </p><p>Yours faithfully,</p><p>Travel Agents and Tourist Guide Division</p><p>Singapore Tourism Board</p>
