COVID-19 update
Philip Jansen, Chief Executive, BT Group has late this afternoon
tested positive for COVID-19 and as a result has followed the
Public Health England protocols to self-isolate.
BT is now working closely with Public Health England to undertake a
full deep clean of relevant parts of its Group headquarters and
will ensure those employees who have had contact with Philip are
appropriately advised.
Philip Jansen said: "Having felt slightly unwell I decided as a
precaution to be tested. As soon as the test results were known I
isolated myself at home."
"I've met several industry partners this week so felt it was the
responsible thing to do to alert them to this fact as soon as I
could."
"Given my symptoms seem relatively mild, I will continue to lead BT
but work with my team remotely over the coming week. There will be
no disruption to the business."
