UK | Covid-19: The Heath and Safety Executive continues spot inspections across the UK

With more employees returning to their place of work, the HSE has started spot inspections to inspect businesses to insure that they have put in place measures to protect their employees in the workplace and that either risk assessments have been updated to reflect COVID related risks or that a specific risk assessment has been done concerning Coronavirus risks. To help with this both the HSE and governments have provided guidance on making your workplace COVID secure.

• The HSE has published a template for a Covid-19 risk assessment. For general guidance on working safely during the coronavirus outbreak click here
