Distancing Ideas From Halkyn Quarry

Our employees from across the country are implementing innovative and easily adaptable ideas to ensure the required physical distance between people is enforced while work carries on. Thank you to Mick Ripley and the NW team for these recommendations!

  • Floor tape now used to delineate 2m stand-offs in offices, weighbridges, canteens, corridors etc.
  • Hand sanitiser provided in all workstations.
  • Excess chairs removed from the canteen, one chair per table and staggered breaks.
  • Meeting room set out with two chairs and floor tape ensuring any necessary inductions carried out with physical distancing.
  • Clocking in/out suspended to discourage operatives congregating in one area and the handling of clock cards.
  • Load out cards sanitised on each use.
  • One man/one machine.
  • Reinforcing the 2m separation rule with employees, it is very easy during conversation to forget this.
