The HSE is using a variety of methods to collect information, including site visits, phone calls, and the collection of supporting visual evidence such as photos.
There are five practical steps that businesses should take to control COVID-19 risks:
- Step 1: Carry out a COVID-19 risk assessment in line with HSE guidance
- Step 2: Develop increased cleaning, hand washing and hygiene procedures
- Step 3: Take all reasonable steps to help people work from home
- Step 4: Maintain 2m social distancing where possible
- Step 5: Where people cannot be 2m apart, manage transmission risk
