Our Preparedness Policy for Covid -19

COVID-19 Preparedness Plan for Jody and Lara Ltd

Jody and Lara is committed to providing a safe and healthy workplace for all our workers and customers. To ensure we have a safe and healthy workplace, Jody and Lara has developed the following COVID-19 Preparedness Plan in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Managers and workers are all responsible for implementing this plan. Our goal is to mitigate the potential for transmission of COVID-19 in our workplaces and communities, and that requires full cooperation among our workers and management.

Only through this cooperative effort can we establish and maintain the safety and health of all persons in our workplaces.

The COVID-19 Preparedness Plan is administered by Lucy Drage, who maintains the overall authority and responsibility for the plan. However, management and workers are equally responsible for supporting, implementing, complying with and providing recommendations to further improve all aspects of this

COVID-19 Preparedness Plan. Jody and Lara’s managers and supervisors have our full support in enforcing the provisions of this plan.

Our workers are our most important assets. Jody and Lara is serious about safety and health and protecting our workers. Worker involvement is essential in developing and implementing a successful COVID-19 Preparedness Plan.

Jody and Lara’s COVID-19 Preparedness Plan follows the industry guidance given by the UK Government and can be found on the Government website https://www.gov.uk/guidance/working-safely-during-coronavirus-covid-19/shops-and-branches

It addresses:

  • ensuring sick workers stay home and prompt identification and isolation of sick persons;
  • social distancing – workers must be at least six-feet apart;
  • worker hygiene and source controls, including face coverings;
  • workplace building and ventilation protocol;
  • workplace cleaning and disinfection protocol;
  • drop-off, pick-up and delivery practices and protocol; and
  • communications and training practices and protocol.

Jody and Lara has reviewed and incorporated the industry guidance applicable to our business provided by the Government, and will continue to monitor and advise as guidance alters over the coming months to maintain the highest standards.
