Keep your workplace ventilated to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19
With winter weather making workers reluctant to keep windows and doors open, it is even more important to ensure your workplace is adequately ventilated. Good ventilation helps reduce the risk from aerosol transmission and prevents the spread of COVID-19.
Following useful feedback from businesses, HSE has updated its website on providing ventilation during the pandemic to make the advice easier to find and understand.
We have updated our pages to include simplified advice on using CO2 monitors to identify poor ventilation. This covers the types of monitor to use, how to measure CO2 and deciding if a work space is suitable for monitors.
There is also a new video on keeping vehicles ventilated, explaining how you can reduce the risk of transmitting the virus when using vehicles.
Our guidance on balancing ventilation with keeping people warm at work has simple steps you can take to make sure your workplace is adequately ventilated without being too cold.
These include:
partially opening windows and doors as this can still provide adequate ventilation
opening higher-level windows to create fewer draughts
if the area is cold, relaxing dress codes so people can wear extra layers and warmer clothing
