COVID-19 Safety: How to Restart Operations and Maintain a Healthy Workplace
As an employer, if your business operations were interrupted, resuming normal or phased activities presents an opportunity to update your COVID-19 preparedness, response and control plans. The plan should be 1) specific to your workplace, 2) should identify all areas and job tasks with potential exposures to COVID-19 and 3) should include control measures to eliminate or reduce such exposures.
In this webinar, Dr. Nancy Burton of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)/National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) will provide background on COVID-19 and discuss steps to physically prepare facilities for reopening and resuming work operations. Guidelines and recommendations that all employers can use to protect their workers and clients will be covered. Dr. Burton will introduce the key on safe approaches to preparing for and maintaining a healthy workplace and will introduce the office building guidance. This guidance is designed to assist office building employers, owners and managers, and operations specialists to create a safe and healthy workplace for workers and clients.
To further support CDC/NIOSH guidance, we will demonstrate how the 小蝌蚪视频 Restart Risk Model™, a systematic process to assess worker safety risk in office spaces, supports organizations in establishing controls to help assure confidence in a safer transition back to the office.
