The approach of organisation to managing risk for those workers who are working from home is given below:
• According to government policy, workers can work from home due to which spread of virus can be avoided.
• Due to the workers work at home reduced accidents, incidents, ill health, near-miss cases and property damage of work related injuries.
• Work at home reduces any possible investigations, enforcement actions and also civil claims which was faced by an organisation before this situation in which workers was working in the organisation and not from home.
• The guidelines and procedures includes that what are the best practices if workers work from home and also how to set up work stations at home has been distributed by the HSE advisor to the workers. It provides a proper way to workers and working at home is easy for them.
• The organisation provides best technology for those who are working from home and also arrange video conference meetings for the business and also for clients contact.
• Organisation planned basic web meetings for 30 minutes weekly due to which the morale of workers will be increasing for social contact with their colleagues. It clarify that organisation is also taking care of workers mental well being.
• For those workers who are not comfortable in team meetings, an organisation is arranging one to one meetings for them which will sort out their individual and work related concerns.
• Organisation has also distributed the guidelines to all worker which includes social distancing and general hygiene guidelines ( hand washing, hand sanitising and wearing mask to cover mouth and nose).
• Communication system from top management to lower management and the lower workers is very clear which provides the orders in a fluent manner to all the workers.
