A Reminder for this Long Weekend: Travelling and Staying Safe
Posted
This long weekend, MBA encourages you to spend some time doing the things that you love with your loved ones. Now is the perfect opportunity to have a few days away from work to recoup from what has been an intense year.
Doing something as simple as sitting down and enjoying a meal with the family, kicking a ball with a mate or walking the dog, might be enough to relax and unwind, even just a bit, before the run into Christmas. If you are lucky enough to get the boat on the water, we hope the fishing is plentiful.
If you are travelling, remember to travel safe, take it easy (double demerits are in force) and to comply with all COVID social distancing and related rules. MBA encourages you to also keep an eye on the relevant health websites (ACT / NSW) to determine where active COVID-19 cases are and to avoid these areas, if possible.
