COVID-19 BEST PRACTISE POLICY

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and in light of the current and ever-evolving government advice, we have undertaken a risk assessment covering all daily tasks and services unique to our business and combined these with an ‘Operational Code of Best Practise’ specific to COVID-19. Managing risk is a shared responsibility and this document has been written for all users of Edinburgh Open Workshop; our residents, PAYG members, their clients and suppliers, and in line with government guidelines on managing the risk of COVID-19 in the workplace. It’s vital we all play our part in mitigating that risk.

EOW UPDATES & RESOURCES

We are experiencing strange and trying times and it is becoming clearer that this distant style of life is going to be a marathon, not a sprint – that can feel daunting, which is understandable. We want you to know that EOW will be here at the end of it, and we will ready to make sure that you all still have access to the space you need to get back to making as soon as possible. For our members and other makers facing uncertainty at this time, we have gathered some of excellent guides out there to help you prepare for returning to work, and resources for financial guidance and support.
