Talka opened the doors on Monday, June 29th but we have introduced some operational changes to make it safer for members and safe as follows;
1. The first change members will see is that the flow of traffic through the branch will be made safer by designating the back door to the parking lot as the Entrance door and the front door off Main Street as the Exit door. This change will ensure members are practicing physical distancing to both enter and exit the branch.
2. Before entering the branch, a sign will be posted to ensure no “at risk” members enter as a safety precaution for other members and staff. We can continue to provide service to these members through telephone support and/or the drop box off Main Street for cheques and other documents.
3. All members should wear a mask when out in the public and staff would greatly appreciate it if those members’ who have a mask wear one in the branch.
4. Talka will limit the number of members in the branch to only two at a time. Members waiting to enter the branch should follow the physical distancing markers on the staircase and outside the branch.
5. Once the Entrance door has been opened, members will be asked to use a touchless hand sanitizer located on the wall across from the door before proceeding to the furthest open teller station. There are four teller stations but only two will be open at any time.
6. New plexiglass barriers have been installed at each teller station. Members should stand back to the physical distancing markers after exchanging any documents at the teller station.
7. After the transaction is completed, members should follow the direction arrows and leave the branch using the Exit door off Main Street.
8. Talka’s re-opening hours of operation will be slightly modified to designate the first hour from 9 to 10 am for seniors.
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday & Friday are 9 am to 5 pm
Wednesday hours are 9 am to 1 pm
Closed on Saturday and Sunday
