COVIDSafe Plan reminder
It is mandatory for every Victorian business with on-site operations to have a COVIDSafe Plan.
Your COVIDSafe Plan must demonstrate:
your actions to help prevent the introduction of COVID-19 to your workplace
the type of face mask or personal protective equipment (PPE) required for your workforce
how you will prepare for, and respond to, a suspected or confirmed case of COVID-19 in your workplace
how you will meet all the requirements set out by the Victorian Government. Some industries or workplaces are subject to additional industry obligations and have additional requirements of employers and employees.
Businesses must review and update their COVIDSafe Plans regularly, especially when restrictions or public health advice changes.
Organisations with multiple worksites must complete a COVIDSafe Plan for each worksite.
Remember you must be using QR codes for people and workers to check into your workplace, or if you don’t have a QR code in place for your business, you must ensure you have a manual sign in register available on site for people to check in.
You can stay up to date with restrictions and public health advice at coronavirus.vic.gov.au
