To ensure the safety of our staff and contractors are not compromised as they continue to fulfil a key role during the pandemic, we are providing all our staff and contractors with a company branded face mask made from nanotech cotton.

This material reduces the spread of the virus by guarding against droplets entering or leaving your mouth and nose.

These masks can be washed up to 100 times ensuring our staff are protected for a long period of time!

Our branches have had a new look recently as we have been busy assembling desk dividers, putting up hand sanitiser stations, creating posters and applying floor markings and stickers for office safety and hygiene during the pandemic.

The safety of our staff is paramount to us, so we have introduced a range of new measures and practices to protect our staff and support in reducing the spread of the virus.

Staff members are asked to check their temperature at the start of the day and to regularly wash their hands and use the hand sanitiser stations provided, as well as disinfect surfaces and ensure they do not share equipment or desks. Our new floor markings will also ensure we keep a 2-metre distance from others, and the glass desk dividers provide added protection to keep our staff safe and comfortable whilst at work.

Following on from World Youth Skills Day yesterday, we continue to highlight today how we are invested in supporting young people to acquire the right skills and to be successful in their employment search.
