IPC Requirements for supervisors to note

• Don face shield & surgical 3-ply face mask. For unvaccinated supervisors who are above 50 years old and where supervision cannot be carried out in a well-ventilated area with 3m distancing from employee conducting self-swab, N-95 mask, gown, gloves of proper size, face shield or goggles, and hair net (for individual with long hair) are still required.

• Preferably to conduct self-swabs in an outdoor setting, or indoor with ample ventilation (open windows/doors and fans). It is not ideal to have air-conditioning at swab location and hence, air-conditioning to be switched off (where possible).

• There should be minimal items at the swab stations.

• The individual should wipe down the swab station before and after swabbing. The supervisor/trained swabber should also ensure that the wipe down of each station is done properly.

• If company uses mirror (mounted or tabletop), it is not necessary to wipe down after every client if the worker does not touch the mirror. It is also not necessary to change gloves or do hand rub after every worker if supervisor does not touch any of the workers’ belongings or test consumables.

• The swab area should be properly wiped down after each day’s testing operations. This includes furniture/queue poles/physical barriers/partitions.

• The flooring at swabbing zone should have a smooth surface, e.g. linoleum, vinyl finish, concrete, hard flooring) to facilitate ease of cleaning, such as mopping. The use of carpeted areas are strongly discouraged as it is difficult to clean and would have to be wet-vacuumed/deep cleaned/removed and discarded after the end of the operations. If not possible, carpeted areas must be covered with a smooth finish surface.

• Test kits must be disposed of in closed bins, e.g. pedal bins) and waste must be then be double-bagged and cable-tied before placing them at the disposal holding area (which must be located away from human traffic and public access to prevent unintended exposure and cross contamination) 10

Proposed Ground Workflow for Employer Supervised Self Swab (ESSS) [1/2]

Page 26: HPB ART Operations Playbook for Companies

Activities at the swab stations

1) Individuals to perform hand hygiene before commencing swabbing.

2) Individuals to carry out self-swab. After the testing has been done, the swab stick, reaction tube and thetest device may then be placed into the Ziploc bag (with client ID) and the Ziploc bag sealed. The testdevice should be laid flat and the results may be read in 15- 20 mins. Please refer to the manufacturer’sinstructions on the exact steps to conduct the test (test kit dependent).

3) Dispose the Ziploc bag that contains the swab stick, the reaction tube, into bins (double bagged and withcover/lid).

4) Individuals are to wipe down the swab station (including the table and the mirror) with the 70% alcoholwipes and perform hand hygiene before leaving the swab station. Infographics on how to performproper hand hygiene may be laid out. Individual proceeds to work*

5) Follow-up actions for AG+ individuals should be taken accordingly.

Handling of Data & Result through Swab Registration System (SRS)

32

Page 33: HPB ART Operations Playbook for Companies

33

Purpose: The standard notification will be used as part of the instructions to the companies (communicated via SLs) to

notify the employees that their employees will be collecting their Personal Data and FET results to submit to HPB and the

Singapore Government.

Use: Companies are to print and put up copies of the Standard Notification at prominent spots where the employees will be

able to read the notification statement prior to them doing the FET swab.

Personal Data - Standard Notification for Display Use (For Companies)

Standard

Notification (For Companies)

Page 34: HPB ART Operations Playbook for Companies

34

Purpose: Similar to the Standard Notification, the T&Cs will be used in the mSRS as this involves the direct use of an IT

system for data submission by the employees.

Use: SLs are to inform companies about the T&Cs which employees' Personal Data and FET results will be collected and

submitted to HPB and the Singapore Government through mSRS.

Swab Registration System (SRS) Account

Two methods to upload ART results

Method 1: Using SRS web portal

1. Upload ART results in an excel spreadsheet via SRS web portal, using the “Bulk Result Upload” option.

2. Company to download the available template from SRS portal prior to swab test to, i) Fill in the particulars (nominal roll)

of the workers to be tested and ii) Fill in workers’ swab test results after test results are ready.

3. Once the template is filled in with details, upload to SRS via web portal.

Method 2: Using SRS mobile portal (also called as SRS v2)

1. Upload ART results using workers’ personalized QR code.

2. Firstly, each worker needs to create a profile on http://go.gov.sg/srs-profile before swab test. After creation of profile,

they will be able to see a generated personalised QR code on their page.

3. Supervisors will need the QR codes of the workers in order to upload their swab test results to SRS. Company may

request the workers to present their QR codes after the swab test (come back after swab test and show their QR code

to supervisor) or request workers to send their QR codes to supervisors before swab test.

4. Uploading of results to SRS:

a) Supervisors are to use the company-specific SRS v2 link (this link is available via the company’s SRS web

portal. Go to Covid-19 testing > ART Link(s)).

b) Supervisors are to use the link to log in and upload the results of all workers 1 by 1, by scanning their respective

QR codes and filling in the result for each of the worker.
