COVID 19 - Policy
What do I need to do?
All risk control starts with a policy. It articulates the objectives of the business and broadly identifies how procedures and systems are implemented by the business in order to achieve them.
It is true to say that Covid-19 has brought into question working practices and methods for most employers whatever industry that is being operated within.
As businesses transition to their operations, decisions need to be made regarding how, where and when employees return to work; what happens if someone is suspected of being infected with Covid-19 amongst a whole host of other issues, which are mainly affected by the implementation of social distancing measures, which need to be identified and articulated to employees and staff in general.
The policy is also used to communicate directly to employees what is being done to ensure their safety, and the expectation placed upon them by the business.
