How worXmart can help you work safely during the COVID-19 pandemic

It’s a strange time for many businesses at the moment, trying to keep things ticking over while working hard to ensure compliance with the social distancing guidance set out by the UK Government. It has been especially tricky for those in factories, plants and warehouses — keeping as many people as possible 1 metre apart. It’s not easy. So, worXmart has stepped up to the plate to try and help our customers. 

Employers have a legal responsibility to protect their workers from risks to their health and safety. So, not only do you have to think hard about what risks they might face, but also do everything you reasonably can to eliminate these risks — while keeping in mind there is nothing you can do that will completely eliminate the risk of COVID-19. It’s a tricky one!

All you can do is make sure the risk assessment for your business addresses the risk of COVID-19 and that you follow the latest Government guidance on control measures. You should also include your employees in any discussions on health and safety, as they’re often the best people to understand the risks associated with your workplace and will have their own ideas as to how they can work safely.

Managing Risk

Although there is nothing you can do to completely remove the risk of COVID-19 infection, there are steps that you can take to minimise the risk — and worXmart has a wide range of COVID-19 prevention products that can help you to do that.

For example, Government advice is to not only increase the frequency of handwashing but surface cleaning as well. Plus the use of screens or barriers to keep people separate from each other is advisable.

The products that worXmart can provide to help with this, include:

• Hand wash stations
• Portable hand washing stations (which can be installed inside a van)
• Sanitisation stations
• Antibacterial soap
• Decontamination products
• Floor markers
• Protective screens
• Face shields
