Reds Global guarding against COVID-19

Update
Written By Harleigh Venables

While many sectors have temporarily closed due to COVID-19, construction is considered an essential service. This means for Reds Global it’s business as usual, with an additional focus on stopping the spread of the virus and keeping our people safe.

ON SITE

Construction sites continue to operate. Reds Global employees on site are following the safety measures put in place by each individual builder, which generally include:

  • Reminders about hand washing and social distancing at daily toolbox talks

  • Access to on site hand washing facilities and sanitisers

  • Staggered lunch breaks and start/finish times to discourage mingling

  • Additional lunch sheds to reduce the use of communal spaces

  • Keeping different trades in different on-site areas

  • Maintaining a consistent workforce – no moving workers around from job to job

REDS GLOBAL HQ

Reds is communicating regularly with its workforce, keeping its employees up to date with all pertinent information coming from the Federal and state governments.
While in the yard, it’s adopting the recommended measures such as:

  • Encouraging employees to work from home where possible

  • Separating employees in the office to create social distance

  • Ensuring daily cleaning of offices, sheds and yards

  • Implementing a strict buddy system, in an attempt to limit any contagion to a single pair

  • Retaining hospital-grade cleaners, should any COVID-19 cases be detected

Reds Global takes its duty of care to its employees and clients very seriously. We’ll continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation closely to minimise the risks to our essential industry.
