  • Immediately contact the nearest screening centre or call the Health Department hotline in your State. 
  • Do NOT attend any onsite bookings.

Actions we will take based on Client Instructions

Based on changing client requirements and discussions with our clients, All Graduates will be acting on client instructions to making changes to some onsite bookings. These changes will include cancelling confirmed onsite bookings, converting onsite to telephone interpreting, and in some instances providing services via a videoconference. Our booking coordinators will contact you if any of your confirmed bookings are impacted.

What you should do if you wish to undertake telephone interpreting

You can notify us with the specific times you would be available for telephone interpreting via your mobile APP so that we can reach you at your nominated times when a booking becomes available. Please see images below to assist you with this process –

All Graduates do not anticipate any disruptions to our service provision and support to our interpreters and translators. 

In the event of a head office closure, our ability to provide services will not be affected as we are ensuring that all head office/administrative staff, wherever possible, will work from home. This process has begun and staff has commenced the set up of their remote workstations. We expect this to be fully implemented by COB Friday 20 March 2020.

Our priority is always the health and safety of our employees and customers and we will continue to keep you updated should changes to our operations occur.

Stay safe and be well. We wish good health to you, your family and community.
