项目摘要

Since the ‘original budget’ was proposed before the COVID-19 pandemic, expenses related to the pandemic were unanticipated and are requested. These expenses are needed and/or required in compliance with the guidelines set by the Philippine government’s Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) and Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) for workplace prevention and control of COVID-19. We believe, though the levels of infections and quarantines fluctuate, it is prudent to maintain these guidelines in line with minimum health standards, given daily exposure to and close contact with the community. Thus, to minimize and help manage and cope with potential infections and transmissions for the protection, safety and well-being of the project personnel and the respondents, supplemental funds are requested for the following items: 1. COVID insurance. This is a type of health insurance that covers COVID-19 hospitalizations, usually annual coverage. Requested for all project personnel (29). The guidelines recommend enhancing employee health insurance. 2. COVID testing. Since we have field personnel that will be in close contact with respondents, and who interacts with all other project personnel (including in project vans that transport interviewer teams), infections can be minimized if regular testing is done. 3. Thermal scanner. This will be used for checking/monitoring temperatures of field staff and respondents each day before commencing interviews and assessments. If either the field personnel or respondent has fever (and/or other respiratory symptoms), interviews will be cancelled and rescheduled. 4. PPE packs. This includes personal protective supplies for both personnel and respondents. For personnel, this includes masks and alcohol. Respondents will be given a pack with masks, alcohol, soap and a pen. The masks, alcohol, and soap will be used during the interviews and in between assessments. The pen will be used to sign study documents (i.e., consent forms), and will not be taken back as additional incentive as well as to minimize contact with potentially infected material (and allay fears of respondents about using infected supplies). 5. Multivitamins. These will be given to project personnel to support or boost the general health and well-being, particularly support immune functions. The Philippine government guidelines encourage employers to provide medications and vitamins.

由于“原始预算”是在COVID-19-19大流行之前提出的，因此大流行是意外的，要求。这些费用需要和/或需要符合菲律宾政府贸易部制定的准则和工业（DTI）和劳工与就业部（DOLE）预防工作场所并控制了COVID-19。我们相信，尽管感染和隔离水平波动，但谨慎地将这些准则符合最低健康标准是谨慎的与社区接触并密切接触。那是为了最大程度地减少和帮助管理和应对具有潜在的感染和传播，以保护该项目人员和受访者，要求补充资金以以下项目： 1。COVID保险。这是一种涵盖Covid-19的健康保险住院，通常是每年的承保范围。要求所有项目人员（29）。这指南建议增强员工健康保险。 2。共同测试。由于我们有与现场人员密切联系负责任以及与所有其他项目人员互动的人（包括在项目货车中那个运输访调员团队），如果进行定期测试，则可以最大程度地减少感染。 3。热扫描仪。这将用于检查/监视现场工作人员的温度并在开始访谈和评估之前每天做出回应。如果是现场人员或反应发烧（和/或其他呼吸道症状），访谈将被取消并重新安排。 4。PPE包。这包括个人的个人保护用品和受访者。对于人员，这包括口罩和酒精。受访者将被给予用口罩，酒精，肥皂和笔包装。面具，酒精和肥皂将使用在访谈和评估之间。笔将用于签名文件（即同意书），也不会作为其他激励措施撤回为了最大程度地减少与潜在感染材料的接触（以及所有受访者的恐惧关于使用受感染的物资）。 5。多种维生素。这些将被交给项目人员，以支持或促进一般健康和福祉，特别是支持免疫功能。菲律宾政府指南鼓励员工提供药物和维生素。
