COVID 19 - BUSINESS WORKING APPROACH

In June 2020 we completed our initial Covid-19 Risk assessment in line with Government guidance. We continue to monitor the situation and are ready and prepared to react to new information as it is made available. Our Risk Assessment is subject to regular review to reflect the challenges of working safely in a rapidly changing environment. We confirm we have complied with the government’s guidance on managing the risk of Covid-19

We have introduced a range of changes to our operations and instructed all staff on essential hygiene practices, physical distancing and other appropriate measures required to keep our operations Covid safe

We have increased our cleaning frequencies in all areas of our operations, from offices to production areas, warehouses and delivery vehicles
We have instructed all operatives on the importance of regular hand washing
