Launch of Good Practice Guide For Covid-19

The FTA, and The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT) have launched a Good Practice Guide for COVID-19, a document sharing practical advice from member organisations on how transport operators and logistics businesses can restart their operations safely, effectively and quickly as the nation emerges from lockdown.

Using practical examples shared by members of FTA and CILT, the Good Practice Guide for COVID-19 is a practical tool for transport operators and other businesses wanting to deliver safe environments for their staff and visitors to their facilities.

Designed to be used in conjunction with the official UK government guidance on Safer Workplaces, the document covers key considerations including risk assessments; social distancing in the workplace; cleaning of the workplace; and PPE and face coverings.

Contributions to the guide have been received from organisations including Wincanton, Maritime, Hermes and DHL.

Access to this guide is available to all UK logistics businesses from the FTA website.
