Creating a safe workspace in collaboration with the Chartered Institute of Ergonomics and Human Factors
The purpose of the guide is to support leaders and managers in businesses and organisations to think through step by step how to address the many issues concerned with creating a safe workspace and eliminating the risks of the COVID-19 virus from spreading.
The process begins with putting together a competent team and undertaking a risk assessment and staff survey to inform decision-making.
Businesses and organisations are encouraged to consider the workplace as a whole system so that in mitigating risk in one part of the work system, unintended consequences are not created in another.
The guidance outlines important steps to identify and reduce risks whilst maintaining performance and productivity and is available now to download. Click here to access the guide.
