Even after a vaccine is developed, Capt. Sanders knows that the coronavirus will still be around, as potent as it is today. For a safer tomorrow, Capt.

New in-office scheduling systems When the threat of COVID-19 has subsided, Capt. Martin Lloyd Sanders tells employees to expect a hybrid approach to employee attendance in offices.
