welcome its employees back and be in a position to provide the same service to its customers as it did before. So, the supply chains that support them must also be revitalised. We’re spending a lot of time supporting our clients with advice in re-starting their supply chains and preparing their business for employees to return.
Q: HOW ARE YOU ADVISING YOUR CLIENTS ON THE PROCESS OF GETTING BACK TO WORK?
▶AF: The most important asset for any business is their employee’s wellbeing, and readiness to return to work should be top of the priorities list. Employees need to feel confident about returning to work and the procedures their employer has put in place to enable them to do so safely.
We are emphasising the need to transform for a new culture. This includes utilising digital technology further and ensuring businesses can deliver robust quality management and supply chains.
We have focused strongly on advising standards and the importance of risk assessments for businesses. Now is the time to ensure practices are robust and employees are safe. COVID-19 represents a host of new challenges, and the HSE will continue to monitor and enforce more action than it has before,

so it is as important as ever to focus on best practice and compliance.
To help meet the HSE’s clear focus on COVID-19, we have offered clients a range of solutions, including free risk assessments and guidance notes to help them protect their employees.
Q: WHAT WILL BE ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL IN A POST- LOCKDOWN WORLD?
▶AF: Risk management is key. Employee safety is now the number one goal for businesses small and large and the best way to plan for that is by carrying out thorough risk assessments, with detailed, actionable follow up activities. Staff will likely be anxious to return to work and it’s the responsibility of the employer to ensure that it is safe to do so.
It is also critical to be ready to act quickly if the virus spikes again, managing supply chains closely. Additionally, future planning is important to maintain business continuity to avoid a second hit to businesses. Currently we are providing new and flexible solutions to aid businesses through the crisis and many of these are free.
