KUALA LUMPUR: MBSB Bank Berhad has confirmed that one of its employees tested positive for Covid-19.
The employee, who is based in its Johor Bahru Regional Office is now receiving treatment at the hospital.
In a statement, the bank said it has taken all the necessary precautionary measures by following the guidelines from Ministry of Health (MoH).
"The bank is currently conducting contact tracing to contain the spread of the virus and those with direct contact with the said employee have been advised to undergo the Covid-19 test," the statement read.
On that note, the bank informed that its Johor Bahru Regional Office and its Johor Bahru branch would be closed effective Oct 23 to facilitate deep sanitisation works.
