The 4-Step Methodology For Reopening Businesses Post COVID

Presented by Jeremy Leu (Pacific General Manager, Bureau Veritas)

COVID-19 has changed businesses and will continue to change the way they operate in the coming future, even after the pandemic ends. Despite the situation being unlikely to return to ‘normal’, the priority for all businesses is to return to work as quickly as possible and with optimum health, safety and hygiene conditions for their employees and clients.

Businesses planning to restart their operations will face significant challenges to safeguard their employees and clients from health and safety risks related to the spread of COVID-19. Organisations will also need to be able to protect and build trust with their employees and clients, as well as promote transparency and credibility to the society in order to reoperate efficiently.

Bureau Veritas Australia has developed a methodology: SafeGuard Assurance Program to meet the requirements of all business sectors of the economy as they gradually reopen for business.

• • Validation of the guidelines – which your facilities are assessed against
