Workshop Operating Procedures under Covid 19 January 2025
An on-duty committee member will open and close the Workshop area; and make sure that the areas are cleaned before and after session to ensure that infections are limited.
Members arriving will sanitize their hands on arrival, and before leaving.
The toilet is a risk area. Members using this must wash hands with soap and water and wipe down with anti bac wipes after use.
Windows should be opened to ensure good air flow, although an exception can be made when there are only a few members present (typical four or less); or when the weather is exceptionally cold.
The shed must be kept clean: a wipe down will be required at the end of each session and at the end of the working day (the last 15 minutes of the session is designated as clean up time), and bins must be emptied daily.
The following PPE will be provided by the charity: Masks, Gloves, Antibac wipes, Paper cups, Paper towel, Soap, Hand sanitiser, and Disinfectant.
For several reasons, we are not stating members must be vaccinated (although we strongly recommend it). Therefore, all members must make their own risk assessment as to attending the workshop. In the interest of harmony, we are banning discussion on discussions about a person’s vaccination status.
