ANSWER: All Victorian businesses are required to have a COVIDSafe Plan in place.
To ensure compliance, random spot checks are underway in metropolitan Melbourne and regional Victoria.
Your COVIDSafe Plan must set out:
Your actions to help prevent the introduction of coronavirus (COVID-19) in your workplace
The level of face mask or personal protective equipment (PPE) required for your workforce
How you will prepare for, and respond to, a suspected or confirmed case of coronavirus (COVID-19) in your workplace
Businesses must review and update their COVIDSafe Plans routinely. Organisations with multiple worksites must complete a COVIDSafe Plan for each worksite.
Failure to comply can result in an on-the-spot fine of up to $9,913 and up to $20,000 for serious offences.
