Key Information for your stay in a MIQ Facility (Isolation Facility)
Hello and Kia Ora – Welcome to New Zealand.
We thank you for helping our Horticulture and viticulture industry.
New Zealand has very few COVID-19 cases and we are trying to keep it that way. To help us protect the country, we have a system of Managed Isolation and Quarantine (MIQ) to prevent new cases of COVID-19.
To help you with your stay in a MIQ facility – please take note of the following information
1/ Do not leave the MIQ Facility
You must stay in the MIQ facility for the entire 14 days and you cannot leave for any reason.
2/ COVID Tests
You will be tested for Covid-19 on day 3 and day 12 by a nurse who will take a swab from your nose.
3/ Stay in your Room
On the first day of your stay, you will be paired up with another person to share your room.
To help prevent the spread of COVID-19 You and your roommate must remain inside your room at all times unless you are going to the outdoor area for exercise or for smoking.
4/ No Visitors
No visitors – don’t let anyone else in your room.
5/ Wear a Mask
You can leave your room for planned exercise or smoking, but always wear a mask when outside your room. You will be given masks to wear. Here is the correct way to put on a mask.
6/ Maintain Two Meters Distance
When you are outside your room, stay two meters away from everyone. Keep your distance at all times.

8/ Get Exercise
You can exercise in your room but there is also an area for exercise outside. You can go there for walking – but keep 2 meters from everyone else there.
9/Book time for a Smoke outside
Don’t smoke in your room.
If you want to smoke – you must book in a time to go to the smoking area outdoors.
10/ Do not share anything
When outside for a smoke break – smoke in allocated areas and DO NOT SHARE cigarettes, lighters, food, or drink or anything -with anyone.

COVID-19 is still a threat. To protect yourself and others remember to:
wash and sanitise your hands regularly, especially before leaving or going back into your room.
wear a mask at all times outside your room, such as in corridors.
12/ Tell staff if you are sick
If you feel sick or unwell at any time, please tell the staff and you will get medical care.
13/ Leave on Day 14 if tests are clear
After 14 days, you can leave and go to your job – if you are healthy and pass the day 12 test for Covid-19.
