COVID-19 has presented a series of challenges to our health, safety and business continuity. Whilst many of the recommendations  for combatting this novel coronavirus are still being  debated, the principles underpinning good workplace hygiene will still mitigate much of the risk, and provide a framework for managing this outbreak, and future pandemics.

This webinar will cover what we know about COVID-19, how long it persists in the environment, transmission, PPE, and disinfection, and will touch on wider principles which can be used to rapidly respond to future emergency situations.

Examples of best practice being employed in companies across Australia in a variety of industries will also be shared.
