With the easing of social and economic lockdown measures, the UK Government currently advises that many sectors including hospitality, leisure, close contact services should have a test and trace system in place.
Currently, there is no requirement for trades to have a test and trace system. However, BPCA believes it’s good practice to implement a procedure to help stop the spread of the virus and protect your staff and clients.
The document covers help and advice for all pest management companies, including sections on:
- Monitor staff
- Maintaining records
- Testing staff for Covid-19
- Disclosing information to track and trace
- Template: record of employee movements
- Further support for BPCA members.
