workspace365 COVID-19 - The Way Back to your Workplace
On the 8th of May 2020, the Australian Government announced a three-step plan to restart the economy and return as many people as possible to the workplace. Each State and Territory is in the process of individually activating their plans depending on their circumstances. workspace365 operates in New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland and our clients are receiving notifications by each State owing to differing State rules and regulations.
workspace365's priority is to ensure that our clients return to a safe and healthy environment and enable them to continue to run their businesses at optimal levels.
We trust our clients to use common sense during this period and a zero-tolerance policy will be adopted to any adverse behaviour directed toward our Staff.
We have refined existing measures and implemented new measures outlined below to make the return to work as stress free and safe as possible for all our clients;
Frequent cleaning
- Our cleaners will continue to clean our offices daily
- Our staff also ensure that all common areas are wiped down with disinfectant during the day
- The focus is on cleaning touch-points and workspaces to meet Australian health and safety regulations
