Manual Handling

Allied Training Services are introducing a comprehensive range of measures to ensure the safety of delegates and staff when training centres as we reopen following the lockdown period.

Facilities and procedures

New safety measures implemented at Allied Training Services ahead of reopening include:

• New wash stations at the entrance to our company.

• Sanitiser stations for delegates in all classrooms with our instructors briefed to sanitise all surfaces and door handles before and after every section of the course – including breaks

• New start time procedures, with course start times staggered to avoid large gatherings in the mornings – our delegates with existing bookings will begin to hear from our customer service colleagues about this very soon

• Temperature checks upon arrival at our centres – this is a crucial stage and our first line of defence to prevent the virus from entering our centres

• Social distancing

New social distancing measures implemented ahead of reopening include:

• Signage indicating one-way systems around our company.

• ‘Feet’ markings on the ground to set out expectations for maintaining 2-metre gaps

• Tables and chairs in classrooms placed 2 metres apart

• Reduced course delegate numbers – in some instances to just 4 people to ensure social distancing can be maintained

• Improved personal protective equipment (PPE) laundry and distribution hub within every centre to ensure that all PPE can be cleaned after every use before it’s returned to delegates – this includes purchasing more than 200 additional coveralls for our delegates to wear
