    COVID-19 business advice Feb/March 2022

    Following removal of COVID-19 legislation in England it is now the responsibility of individual businesses to state how they are going to continue to protect their staff and any visitors to the business premises e.g., contractors or members of the public.

    This can be undertaken by carrying out your Health and Safety risk assessment and any staff sickness policies.

    The current guidance

    Adults and children who test positive will continue to be advised to stay at home and avoid contact with other people. After 5 days, they may choose to take a Lateral Flow Device (LFD) followed by another the next day - if both are negative, and they do not have a temperature, they can safely return to their normal routine. Those who test positive should avoid contact with anyone in an at-risk group, including if they live in the same household.

    Safe Behaviours

    Individuals can still reduce the risk of catching and passing on COVID-19 by:

    • a. Getting vaccinated;
    • b. Letting fresh air in during indoor events, or holding events outside where possible;
    • c. Wearing a face covering in crowded and enclosed spaces, especially where you come into contact with people you do not usually meet, when rates of transmission are high;
    • d. Trying to stay at home if you are unwell;
    • e. Taking a test if you have COVID-19 symptoms, and staying at home and avoiding contact with other people if you test positive; and
    • f. Washing your hands and following advice to 'Catch it, Bin it, Kill it'.

    For ensuring your event is COVID-19 safe please see the latest advice on the Government website Events and attractions - Working safely during coronavirus (COVID-19) - Guidance - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
