Objective: To make sure all workers understand coronavirus related safety
procedures.

Providing clear, consistent and regular communication to improve understanding and consistency of ways of working amongst your workers.


Engaging with workers through existing communication routes and worker representatives to explain and agree any changes in working arrangements.

measures are being implemented or updated.
Steps that will usually be needed:


Ongoing engagement with workers, (including through trades unions or employee representative groups) to monitor and understand any unforeseen impacts of changes to working environments.


Awareness and focus on the importance of mental health at times of uncertainty. The government has published guidance on the mental health and wellbeing aspects of coronavirus (COVID-19).

What is meant by the phased approach?
section_content: Not all forms of work will return to normal at once. People will have to
prepare for a new type of normal. We need to make sure that any changes we do
make are carefully monitored and that we aren’t doing anything to increase the
risk of infection and push the Reproductive value ‘R’ above 1. ‘R’ describes
how many people on average will be infected for every one person who has
COVID-19.
We will ensure that businesses have time to prepare their premises to operate
as safely as possible.
We will set out more detail about the phasing in due course.

Reviewer feedback on this answer:
It was bad because the question asked about safety but the answer was about a new normal.
The paragraph is about returning to work but not about work safety.

Answer passage (source: UK):
page_title: Labs and research facilities
section_headers: 3. Social distancing at work
3.3 Workplaces and workstations
section_content: Objective: To maintain social-distancing between individuals when they are at
their workstations.
Unlike offices, R&D facilities may need workers to share workstations and
equipment. If they need to be shared, they should be shared by the smallest
possible number of people.
If it is not possible to keep workstations 2m apart then businesses should
consider whether that activity needs to continue for the business to operate
and if so take all mitigating actions possible to reduce the risk of
transmission.
Steps that will usually be needed:


Review layouts where possible, accepting the limitation of some lab environments.


Using floor tape or paint to mark areas to help people keep to a 2m distance.


Only where it is not possible to move workstations further apart, using screens to separate people from each other.


Only where it is not possible to move workstations further apart, arranging people to work side-by-side or facing away from each other rather than face-to-face.


Managing occupancy levels, to maintain social distancing in labs with restricted space, for example, by adapting booking systems to limit usage.


Cleaning workstations and shared equipment and machinery, where it is feasible to do so.


Limiting use of high-touch items and shared office equipment, for example, test equipment, apparatus, shared control terminals.


Ensuring appropriate air-handling and filtering systems are installed and maintained in high-risk areas where there is a risk for airborne particles.
