As trading conditions have dictated, we have decided to strategically scale working hours from 01/05. These changes to team hours will vary across departments and have the end goal of ensuring complete coverage across business hours with no impact upon our customers.

 

In addition to the changes to hours by department, we have moved to return the warehouse, production and quality teams to normal single-shift operations with the following procedures in place:

  1. Existing measures to minimise the risk of COVID infection will remain in place, such as adequate distancing, stringent hygiene behaviours and increased cleaning.
  2. Additional measures to minimise the risk under a single-shift roster will be implemented including staggered start, finish and break times as appropriate.
  3. The transition to a single shift may be introduced over a few days to allow body clocks to adjust.
  4. We will return to a split-shift arrangement if dictated by an increased risk of infection or as government regulations indicate.

 

It remains our priority to protect our team, families and customers whilst continuing to deliver the highest quality products and services. With thoughtful changes to our working hours, we ensure a sustainable business throughout and following COVID-19.
