COVID-19 Safety Plans and COVID Safe registration

Having a COVID-19 Safety Plan in place will help minimise risk of transmission of COVID-19 on your premises.

Food processing and manufacturing businesses should also consider the benefits of registering as COVID Safe.

Complete the plan in consultation with your workers, then share it with them.

Keep your plan up to date

You may need to update the plan in the future, as restrictions and advice changes.

Your COVID-19 Safety Plan

You can either:

• use the provided COVID-19 Safety Plan to address the checklist of matters for food processing 
• keep using your existing plan, if you have one, after making sure it includes all the items in the provided COVID-19 Safety Plan.

Things to note:

• If you complete the plan online it will take 30 to 45 minutes and must be completed in one session.
• You may need to review current NSW Health guidance on the following areas before completing your plan:
  • physical distancing
  • record keeping
  • face masks
  • self-isolation and quarantine.
