Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic resource centre

Have an overview of the current position of your business and how it will respond during and after a crisis. Release any pre-written materials you may have such as health alerts, vaccination policies and communication protocols during the pandemic.

Share information with your employees about the pandemic, its scope and impact, your business continuity plan and direct them to credible sources like WHO or the Department of Health for further information.

Give your employees up-to-date information about your pandemic safety response via email, text and company-wide updates. Issue travel advisories and any other steps you can take to limit the spread of the pandemic.

Review your physical workspace for any possible areas of contamination or anywhere that may be accessible for those outside of your company like delivery drivers and couriers. Take steps to increase office cleaning and improve company-wide hygiene.

In case of emergency or spread of pandemic within your workplace, seek advice from the Department of Health for your state or territory so you can organise a coordinated response to stop the spread.
