KAUST COVID-19 Risk Matrix

Health, Safety and Environment has developed a Risk Matrix to help you identify what the potential risk is for  practicing certain activities during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Use this chart to help make informed decisions about your activities.

Continue to exercise the Keep KAUST Safe guidelines at all times, no matter what the risk level is.  

It’s every one’s responsibility to Keep KAUST Safe! 

To request more information about the risk matrix or for general questions, please contact HSE at hse@kaust.edu.sa.

Employers of domestic workers are reminded of their employment obligations and the importance of providing support and continuous updates to domestic workers during COVID-19. We have prepared a useful reminder and some helpful health and well-being tips. We encourage all employers to share the guide with their domestic workers.
