PROVIDING A SAFE WORKPLACE FOR ASSOCIATES
With the current pandemic situation that is happening around the world, it is an employer needs to provide a safe workplace for associates. The employer should respond to how they can operate, according to health and safety rules and local Government requirements. It would be a great effort to have special attention to be paid to protect Agency Workers who should also be considered as the same as those in permanent employment.
Employers should begin to consider the following procedures now, even if COVID-19 has not arrived in the surrounding community. These measures can reduce working days lost due to illness and stop or slow the spread of COVID-19 if it arrives at one of your workplaces. Companies must be very careful that these measures do not lead to a loss of vigilance, regarding general occupational Health & Safety measures.
The following topics should be addressed and detailed for all companies welcoming Agency Workers:
• Transport to the Workplace
• Social Distancing at Work (Access Control, Health Status Check, Planning, Timing and Shift Patterns, Meals and Breaks, Meetings, Hardware, Tools and Desks)
• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
• Cleaning and Hygienic Behaviours
• Knowledge Management
