Companies returning to business must navigate a new environment. They must provide confidence to stakeholders that they are implementing measures for safe and secure operations. The My Care framework helps assess, manage and mitigate infection risk enabling businesses to communicate trust to the market.

Infection risk management has become a core performance driver. This will seemingly continue in the post COVID-19 landscape.  Preventive and mitigating actions must incorporate all national, international and industry requirements. The level of infection risk management required has previously only been common in hospitals. Moreover, the COVID-19 landscape is fast changing and new processes and systems must be developed and implemented quickly, continually updated and checked. How can companies field an adequate response, rapidly, to something so complex?

Translating all COVID-19 prompted requirements into compliant processes and ensuring  sound implementation across your organization requires considerable efforts. While hygiene and anti-contamination measures may already be part of your HSE policies and related management systems, the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic demands additional specific, more stringent and sometimes drastic changes. However, when approached thoroughly, an infection risk management system can be very powerful and build the necessary trust toward all stakeholders.

How can it help my business?

• Ensure legal and regulatory compliance;
• Provide assurance to key stakeholders of your capability to manage risk;
• Build a robust management system for rapid COVID response and long-term business resilience;
• Communicate to customers, employees and other stakeholders  that you are operating a safe and secure business.
