COVID Safe in the Workplace

Safety Services Australia was invited to be on the expert panel for the Sunrise show on Sunday 10th January discussing COVID Safe in the Workplace.  I was not able to participate however, David Grove our Senior Consultant, represented Safety Services Australia and discussed the steps in implementing COVID Safety Plan and Returning to Work Plans.

See attached link. Note the panel  and discussion is introduced 1 hour into the program. https://7plus.com.au/weekend-sunrise?episode-id=WSUN21-002

David advised employers COVID Safe Returning to Work Plans & Practices need to be:

  • Safe
  • Workable
  • Clear &
  • Flexible

The plans need to be communicated to all staff to manage any heightened expectations.

Its important that the employer keeps informed of all the latest medical advice, continue to communicate to the staff, complete all pre re-opening checks, walk through and test your plan

Remember there are no shortcuts.  If an issue does arise, always think about deferring to an even safer option.
