Covid-19

Health and safety is our priority and we have put the following measures in place so you can stay and dine with confidence. As the Coronavirus outbreak comes under control, certain measures may be reduced, amended or eliminated.

All team members will undergo a Health and Safety Covid-19 Secure training program prior to returning to work, to educate them in strict hygiene protocols whilst remaining able to deliver our usual high standards of service.

1m+ social distancing to be observed wherever possible.

Enhanced cleaning programme throughout all ‘back of house’ areas, including all touch points such as door handles, handrails, Hand sanitising stations will be available for the team.

PPE (face coverings, disposal gloves, aprons, wipes, screens) available for all staff. Face coverings will be worn by all staff where social distancing is not possible.

Daily temperature checks on arrival. Any member of the team with a temperature of 37.8C or greater will be asked to wait in their car or a private room for 30 minutes before having a second temperature check. If their temperature is still 37.8C they will need to call the NHS 111 Coronavirus and follow advice.

Teams will have staggered arrival and departure times and wherever possible.

We will encourage increasing the frequency of hand washing or hand sanitising and surface cleaning (including disinfection of high footfall areas or common touchpoints and toilet/restrooms).

The time of any activity where social distancing cannot be maintained will be kept as short as possible.

Back-to-back or side-to-side working will be introduced (rather than face-to-face) and the use of screens or barriers to separate people from each other whenever possible.

‘Fixed teams or partnering’ to be used where possible (so each person works with only a few others) Staff lunches will be adapted to minimise risks Internal meetings to be carried out remotely where possible or open air and social distancing observed if meetings take place in person and training will be carried out remotely where possible.

A one-way system will be implemented back of house to prevent staff crossing, where possible.

We will create an internal ‘Whistle blow’ Covid-19 system so the team can raise any concerns with a manager anytime Dirty laundry will be separated from clean laundry so that there is no cross contamination A Covid-19 Champion (senior member or staff) has been appointed to ensure all procedures are being met. The Angel has recently invested in an antiviral fogging machine. This will be used daily in all bedrooms, every part of the pub including high contact areas and outside areas will also be sanitised regularly.
