Course Description
Designed for employers and employees of takeaway food establishments, our online course outlines best practices to ensure you and your employees can return to work safely following COVID-19.
Following the COVID-19 lockdown, many catering and hospitality establishments are making a move to takeaway services, whilst they are unable to provide sit-down services, and they are starting to return to the workplace. But what does that actually mean for employers and employees? What measures need to be put in place to make sure everyone feels safe?
Aimed at both employers and employees, our online course helps answer these questions. Using the government guidance and providing best practice advice, it helps you find a way of returning to work safely.
The topics you will cover are:
- An overview of the current COVID-19 guidance.
- What social distancing means.
- What the terminology used by the government means.
- The impact of returning to work and how to plan and risk assess the work environment.
- The key things to consider when travel is needed for work.
- Things to consider when staff return to the workplace, including policies, procedures and training that should be considered.
Please note – while this course includes guidance from across the UK, the content is primarily based upon regulations and guidance in England.

What our clients say
Optimal People and Business are experts in all things HR. We worked successfully with them to produce a series of information videos to help businesses during the Corona lockdown. We are looking forward to working with them again in the near future as we grow our business.
We personally dealt with Vici at Optimal and she was a delight. She was open and honest and gave great advice and guidance. She helped us deal with what could have been a very difficult dismissal with a problematic member of staff. I would not hesitate to recommend Vici to any business for their HR.
Can’t thank Mel and the team enough. Really helped my business in a crisis. Looking forward to working with you and the team.

5* all round, Mel was extremely helpful and answered all my questions, very friendly and professional. Recommended to others and would definitely use again. Thank you again Mel and Helen.
Mel and her team are fantastic, help me all along the way with some complex issues. Couldn't recommend more.
I've used Optimal PBS on a couple of occasions now to assist with due diligence on an acquisition i've been working on and also to provide contract and handbook production. Cannot fault the support or advice provided.
We love this company and Mel is a god send to our business, she sorted everything for us from employee contracts to helping us source the right accountant, she is at the end of the phone whenever I have any HR questions (even when on holiday) can not fault her commitment. Keep up the good work!
