Covid – 19 Return to Work Risk Assessments

Easy to use risk assessment tools for your business.

We have combined our experience and knowledge with Winning Ideas Ltd to develop easy to use risk tools for your business. You can take these away and use them within your own organisations. The first of which are a set of 3 separate but complementary risk questionnaires. These are based on returning to work safely during the Covid -19 global pandemic.   Here is some information about them:

1. Covid – 19 People Risk Questionnaire

Description:

This is a ‘back to work’, risk based Questionnaire for HR professionals. It is an easy to use risk tool for surveying staff about their readiness to come back to work, whether they are working from home or the office. Use it to: assess people’s most common concerns related to their well being, Covid-19 vulnerability, the work they do and their finances, because it will help you make the right transitional choices for them.

2. Covid 19 – Operational Risk Questionnaire

Description:

This questionnaire is for middle management. It is an easy to use risk tool for managers to survey their functional risk environment, to facilitate keeping their staff safe whether they are working from home or in the office. Use it to: survey the staff running your business departments. This will help you find out if they have a good grasp of the pandemics’ effect upon the business operations, facilitates, regulations and legal requirements. You will find that it helps you collect the risks and uncertainties managed by them. You can then use the data to gain a good understanding of the controls that need to be put in place. (If your staff are already struggling to control some of the changes brought about by the pandemic, then it would be helpful to know about it). Some useful tools may be necessary to help you keep a close eye on the big picture.

This people risk survey will return you data about the following:

  • The Covid-19 world in which we now do business
  • An updated review of the business risks we now face
  • The right deployment of resources/staff, and critically,
  • Robust risk monitoring and reporting enabling better decision-making

The wellbeing of staff needs to be put first to protect the business and ensure that it thrives. Consider all aspects of working life, from the quality and safety of the physical environment, to how workers feel about their work, their working environment and their organisation.

3. Covid – 19 Management Recovery Response Risk Survey

Description:

This is for audit teams, risk, HR professionals, those that run the business and make decisions. It is an easy to use risk tool that is particularly useful for executives and Boards. Use it to: deliver a structured risk-based approach, because it can help to gain insight to the things that are being managed by the business. Helping to inform the Board, who are key decision makers, about employees wellbeing and it provides a basis for longer term sustainable recovery. It also informs contingency management, policy compliance, leadership, communication, learning and development.
