Covid-19: Back to the workplace - Adapting workplaces and protecting workers
28 Apr 2020
European Agency for Safety and Health at Work has released a publication which helps organisations to provide workers with the information they need and put measures in place to prevent infection. Non-binding guidelines aim to help employers and workers to stay safe and healthy in a working environment that has changed significantly because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The publication gives advice on risk assessment and appropriate measures such as minimising exposure, resuming work, coping with absences and managing workers working from home.
Workers’ involvement and taking care of those who have been ill is also included as well as information and further links for many sectors, occupations and countries.
