State of Emergency Legal Regime Will Not Disrupt Normal Operations of the State Revenue Committee

In the Republic of Armenia, in connection with the spread of new coronavirus cases, a state of emergency has been declared throughout the country from March 16 at 18:30 until April 14 at 17:00, according to the decision 298-N of the Government of Armenia dated March 16, 2020. This information is reported by the State Revenue Committee (SRC).

The main responsibilities of the Committee are to ensure economic security in the Republic of Armenia and to secure revenues under its control. Therefore, the SRC represents a kind of frontline, and in this responsible situation, the zeal for fulfilling work duties should not be weakened due to various fears, nor should there be any deviation, even to a minor extent, from the need to demonstrate responsible behavior.

SRC employees are required to deeply understand the nuances of the created situation, display resilience, and, by setting an example, contribute to overcoming existing challenges with minimal losses. In turn, the leadership of the SRC is taking all possible steps to ensure the safety of employees.

For this purpose, disinfectants have been installed at the entrances of SRC administrative buildings and in various parts of the building. Daily checks of employees' body temperatures are being conducted, and the transport vehicles that facilitate the movement of SRC personnel are being disinfected. Employees who are in direct contact with citizens have also been provided with personal protective equipment.

At the same time, the SRC urges strict adherence to personal hygiene rules and instructions from state authorized bodies.
