Fujifilm continues to monitor the current global and local events related to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, and the company is taking the appropriate steps that are consistent with recommendations of the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), an outside infectious diseases specialist, and other health officials to help support the ongoing health and safety of its workers. These measures will also minimize the impact to Fujifilm’s customers.

“As this is a rapidly evolving situation, we have adjusted our business practices in order to safeguard the health and safety or our workers, customers and the community, and to comply with various recently ordered state and local orders,” states Tetsuya Iwasaki, president. “We are following governmental orders in the locations where we operate and we have frequently communicated supply chain and distribution updates to our partners.

“We are also taking proactive measures to ensure the health and safety of our staff and customers. As such, we have temporarily closed the Wonder Photo Shop in New York City and the camera repair drop- off and pick-up in Edison, NJ. During this time, we are still committed to providing exceptional service to our customers. For support, customers are still welcome to contact us.

As a company, Fujifilm is doing its part to enhance society, as well as taking precautions for its workforce. To respond to emerging events tied to COVID-19, Fujifilm has directed specific procedures in order to maintain a safe workforce. Until further notice, the company has enacted a work-from-home policy for all non-essential personnel, social distancing and split shifts for essential workers on-site, extensive cleaning procedures at our sites, encouraging workers to follow good hygiene practices based on the CDC guidelines, as well as restricting travel, meetings, events and visitors, to comply with social distancing requirements.
