The Importance of Covid-19 Safety Precautions in The Workplace

Covid-19 Safety Precautions

It has been nearly two months since lockdown restrictions have officially ended in the UK, permitting everyone to move freely as they have done previously. High streets are beginning to fill once again, tourism is returning, clubs are reaching full capacity and social distancing measures are seemingly becoming a thing of the past. With no restrictions in place and over half of the UK population (76.7%) fully vaccinated, It can become easy to forget that Coronavirus is still very much present throughout the world, and has integrated itself as a part of our daily lives.

The Covid-19 vaccine;

The Covid-19 vaccine has been hailed throughout the pandemic as a glimmer of hope in returning to complete normalcy throughout not only the UK but the world. Indeed, studies have shown that it provides up to 90% immunity in adults, giving the population both the physical protection as
well as the security and confidence to go out and socialise once again. However, similar to other vaccines, no single vaccine provides 100%
protection, and it still is possible to contract covid 19 even after receiving the vaccination. Recent headline articles have revealed that a fully vaccinated man from Greece has died after catching coronavirus, with no underlying conditions.

The Covid-19 precautions;

This raises concerns of more waves to come, as the delta variant becomes the prominent strain in both the UK and USA, and the numbers in the UK continue to grow. The UK Government has recently reported over 26,000 daily cases – an increase of 5% from the previous week. This makes it vital that you and your business continue to take recommended precautions to avoid infection. The top 5 important precautions to maintain are as highlighted below:

1. Wash your hands often with soap and water for 20 seconds / where not possible sanitise your hands
2. Wear face coverings in crowded places and on public transport
3. Check in to venues via the NHS app
4. Provide covid-19 precaution signage
