The course describes both managers’ and employers’ responsibilities to protect employees’ health, safety and wellbeing, as well as anyone else that could be affected by any work activities. It outlines the need to assess the risks associated with Covid-19 and what control measures should be implemented to minimise the risk of transmission, such as:
- Making arrangements for social distancing
- Implementing regular and robust cleaning routines
- Enforcing good personal hygiene
- Providing PPE where necessary, given the risks and conditions
This course provides general information for how everyone in the workplace can mitigate the risks, but organisations will need to translate this information into specific actions, which will depend on the type of organisation, its size, and how it is structured, managed and regulated.
Like all EssentialSkillz courses, this Return to Work for Managers eLearning course can be customised to meet your needs, enabling your workforce to understand the specific policies and procedures developed for your organisation. A course administrator within your organisation can edit the text and images within the course, and link to organisation-specific documentation, all at no extra cost.
