How we are protecting people undertaking training
At Height Safety Engineers, the wellbeing of our team and students is our highest priority.
We have implemented measures to ensure we maintain best hygienic practices in our training centres, including thorough cleaning and disinfecting practices at the end of every day and ongoing cleaning and disinfecting during the day.
We require all staff and students attending our training centres to follow these basic protective measures:
- Scan in using the ServiceNSW QR check in upon entering the premises.
- Wear masks while indoors.
- Wash hands thoroughly.
- Maintain social distancing of 1.5m where possible.
- Maintain 1 person per 4-square metre rule.
- Avoid shaking hands or touching other persons.
- Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth.
- Use wipes to disinfect phone and after touching training equipment.
- Practice respiratory hygiene when sneezing and coughing by covering your mouth and nose with a tissue and disposing of it immediately.
If you are feeling unwell, or have been required to self-isolate due to potential exposure to COVID-19, please contact us and we can reschedule your training or offer a credit until you are cleared of any infection.
We continue to closely monitor the COVID-19 situation near all our training centres and are following the advice of the health authorities in each state.
To date, there have been no COVID-19 infections associated with training at any HSE facility.
