Royal Mail Group – Coronavirus Unit Risk Assessments Update Version 8:
In line with the ongoing commitment from Royal Mail Group to keep the CWU informed of any changes or updates made to the Coronavirus Unit Risk Assessments, CWU/HQ has been advised of the RMG unit risk assessment approach which amalgamates the previously issued Functional Risk Assessments into one Risk Assessment that applies to all RMG sites.
This Risk Assessment incorporates the changes communicated in October.
The Unit Risk Assessment is based on the current key Government Covid-Secure controls (hand hygiene, ventilation, face coverings – mandatory or strongly recommended in England, and cleaning – touch points, vehicles, shared equipment etc.).
The Risk Assessment also refers to other controls such as testing and revised operational procedures which have been introduced e.g., contactless delivery.
Subjects covered:
- Touch Points
- Contacts
- Handling Test Kits
- First Aid
- Mental Health, Stress and Anxiety
- Musculoskeletal Disorders
- Cleaning & Waste Disposal
- Hand Hygiene
- Signage
- Face Coverings
- Operational Procedures
- Ventilation
- Self-Isolation
- Testing
- Monitoring
The Unit Risk Assessment has been circulated to all Royal Mail Group Unit Managers/PiCs this month.
An example copy is attached for ASR information and reference. The full working version is accessible on the RMG Intranet/Share Point site.
Yours sincerely
Dave Joyce
National Health, Safety & Environment Officer
