Dear Colleagues
The purpose of this email is to give staff an update with regards to essential or permitted services staff in the workplace. I would like to say thank-you to all the staff who worked so hard last week, your efforts and commitment are appreciated.

The staff categories that are required to be at work because they are essential or permitted service are listed below. Staff who are required to work have been advised by their HoD or Director/Line Manager/Supervisor. Staff may only proceed to the workplace once they have competed the Initial Risk Assessment Process at the HCC. A more automated process will be ready in due course (as per the H&S Protocol) but for now staff should proceed to the HCC to complete the Initial Risk Assessment Process. Until the process can be automated and if you don’t want to wait in a queue it is recommended that you make an appointment at the HCC for the Initial Risk Assessment Process.
The staff that have completed the Initial Risk Assessment Process must complete the Daily Self-Assessment Screening Questionnaire (attached) and either give it to their Line Manager or drop it off at the HCC because the Access Points will only be operational from Tuesday, 12 May 2020. From Tuesday, 12 May 2020 these forms should be submitted at one of the Access Points outlined in the Health and Safety Protocol.
