What are we doing as a business to help protect our employees and customers against COVID-19?
Firstly, as a small business we are doing the best we can to accommodate to these new times.
In saying that, we’ve implemented a COVID-19 Service Delivery Plan to help our employees practice their trade in a safe and hygienic manner.
Our technicians have been supplied with masks, gloves, sanitizer and disinfectant spray. They are also keeping a 1.5 metre distance wherever possible from other people, including co-workers.
We have a new booking policy. Asking our customers if they have any flu like symptoms, if they have been in contact with anyone who has tested positive for Coronavirus or been tested for COVID19 and awaiting the results.
If our own employees are feeling any flu like symptoms they will not be allowed to work and must go get tested. During the wait of the results, they are to self isolate at home.
So far, none of our employees have been tested positive for COVID-19.
By practicing our safety techniques, we hope we can make a big difference.
