The federation’s new ‘Covid-secure roadmap’ details eight practical steps, along with recommended actions that companies should take into consideration, to create “a trusted and compliant environment”.

“It’s important to note that this is not a short-term crisis and it’s quite likely that Covid-19 will circulate in the human population long-term. It’s becoming more apparent that, until we have a more effective treatment or vaccine, social distancing and more regular and enhanced cleaning routines will have to continue for some time,” the BPIF said.

The roadmap can be downloaded from the BPIF website.
