Communicable Disease Prevention: 4 Step Plan
- Understand the risk
- The Beat Administration will continue to stay up-to-date with Provincial Health Guidelines & recommended prevention strategies by monitoring and reviewing information from the BC Government, Worksafe BC, and Island Health.
- Implement measures, practices, and policies to reduce the risk
- Daily Health Checks: All employees are to conduct a Daily Health Check before reporting for work. All clients, guests, rental groups are to conduct a Daily Health Check before entering the studio. Anyone who is experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 are encouraged to stay home. If anyone feels sick at the studio, they will be asked to go home immediately.
