The National 1798 Rebellion Centre is committed to providing a safe and healthy workplace for all our workers and customers. To ensure that, we have developed the following COVID-19 Response Plan. All managers, supervisors and workers are responsible for the implementation of this plan and a combined effort will help contain the spread of the virus.

We will:

·         Continue to monitor our COVID-19 response and amend this plan in consultation with our workers.

·         Provide up to date information to our workers on the Public Health advice issued by the HSE and Gov.ie.

·         Display information on the signs and symptoms of COVID-19 and correct hand-washing techniques.

·         Provide an adequate number of trained Worker Representative(s) who are easily identifiable and put in place a reporting system.

·         Inform all workers of essential hygiene and respiratory etiquette and physical distancing requirements.

·         Adapt the workplace to facilitate physical distancing.

·         Keep a log of contact/group work to help with contact tracing.

·         Have all workers attend an induction/familiarisation briefing.

·         Develop a procedure to be followed in the event of someone showing symptoms of COVID-19 while at work or in the workplace.

·         Provide instructions for workers to follow if they develop signs and symptoms of COVID-19 during work.

·         Intensify cleaning in line with government advice.
