Updated COVID-19 Safety Plan

Sep 2, 2021

Productivity Bootcamp have been actively monitoring the advice and updates provided by the State Governments and NSW Health regarding COVID-19. The health and safety of our Bootcampers, our workers, their families, and the community are our top priority.

We have recently updated our COVID-19 Safety Plan to reflect the current state of the pandemic in NSW. More measures have been introduced to help minimise the risk presented by COVID-19 and allow Productivity Bootcamp to continue operating.

Wellbeing of Workers on site

• Management will monitor government advice daily including the daily update given by Premier Berejiklian and NSW Health. Relevant updates are communicated to staff and Bootcampers as they are received
• All staff and Bootcampers are to sign in using the QR code
• No visitors to site unless approved by Program Manager (approved visitors mainly includes suppliers/contractors like the skip bin people or the company that pump out the toilets). Any visitors must sign in using the QR code
• Those visiting for application appointments are still permitted but must wear a mask and the appointment is conducted outside with physical distancing measures in place. They also must sign in using our QR code
