PSCI: The Fast Five

Chris O'Neill
This month, in lieu of the Fast 5 - the section of our newsletter which we've dedicated to highlighting our wonderful consultants - we've repurposed this space in order to address the ongoing novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Please read below to hear from our President & CEO, Chris O'Neill.

These are certainly unprecedented times, but I wanted to assure you that at PSCI it is our priority to keep our consultants and their families healthy. As the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) continues to spread globally, PSCI is taking appropriate precautions to address the outbreak by following guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as well as orders enforced by Governor John Carney (DE).

According to the CDC, the best way to prevent the spread of COVID-19 is to take measures to avoid it. While the Governor's orders have listed our industry as essential, we are fortunate enough to be able to accomplish our work remotely. That's why I have instructed our internal staff to work from home for the foreseeable future. Let me assure you, however, that we will continue to operate as normal with as little disruption as possible.

Each client, however, sets its own workplace policies. Accordingly, you should be in touch with your PSCI contact to find out the status of your work assignment and the policies of your particular worksite.

Given this is a rapidly developing situation, we will continue to monitor developments and update our course of action as new information becomes available. In the meantime, please do your part to stay healthy, and be prepared for potential disruptions (if they may occur). Contact your Business Director/Recruiter within our offices, or HR, with questions or to discuss any related issues.

As we work to get through this together, I want to thank you for your patience and willingness to adapt to your daily responsibilities. Each one of your contributions helps with the country's attempt to stabilize the economy.

With sincere regards,
​Chris O'Neill
President & CEO

PSCI: The Latest

PSCI's Annual Day of Service at RMDH
For the fourth consecutive year, PSCI's internal staff spent an afternoon preparing dinner for the families and staff of the Ronald McDonald House of Delaware.

Each year we do this proves to be more rewarding than the past and we couldn't be happier to continue this tradition.

​This year, our menu consisted of meat loaf, mashed potatoes, green beans, fresh dinner rolls, salad, chicken nuggets and tater tots for the kids, and fruit salad (a house favorite!).

While the world fights to withstand the current coronavirus pandemic, please don't forget those families who are fighting their own battles against childhood cancer, chronic illness, and other injuries.

If you'd like to donate to RMDH charities, you can do so HERE.

COVID-19 and Financial Market Swings
​The coronavirus outbreak, among other things, is creating a lot of ups and downs in the stock markets.

For now, it's hard to tell where the market will go. If we see more bad news about the virus, we'll likely see more market swings.

The most important thing is not to panic. The markets have seen many ups and downs throughout their history. The good news is that they eventually recover.

When you're saving over a longer time, such as for your retirement, sticking to your savings plan can help you weather these changes.

Learn more about getting through market swings with The Standard's "Ride Out the Ups and Downs" flyer and video.​
