Our City Inspectors team were out and about today as part of our programme to visit every shop in the city and to make sure safety measures are in place. We're pleased to see lots of signage reminding shoppers to wear a face-covering when shopping for essentials.
If your business is currently open to the public, we have created the following assets for you to print and display in your premises to remind people to shop safely by wearing a face covering, and informing them of the number of people allowed into your premises at one time, to enable social distancing.
If you would like additional support or assistance, please visit our website or contact businessunit@westminster.gov.uk.
Businesses providing essential goods and services: As we enter the most challenging point of the pandemic to date, it is crucial that we all continue to do all we can to help limit the spread of coronavirus. Under the current national restrictions, businesses providing essential goods and services can stay open, including food shops and supermarkets. Below are some steps which premises must take to protect their staff and customers at this time:
✅ Complete a COVID-19 risk assessment and share it with staff
✅ Keep your spaces clean by increasing how frequently you clean work areas and equipment between uses
✅ Remind customers and staff to wear face coverings
✅ Encourage and facilitate social distancing by making it easy for everyone to do so
✅ Take part in NHS Test and Trace by keeping a record of all staff and contractors.
