  • As essential service providers we have access to and check our staff with rapid antigen tests (“RAT”).

SEAL Protocols - How we approach a job in Traffic Light Red

In addition to the General Practices and Procedures listed above we will:

  • agree beforehand on an arrival time.

  • be in a company vehicle that carries our company’s logo.

  • telephone you when we arrive in your driveway.

  • wash hands and disinfect equipment before entering.

  • touch as little as possible on site

  • be in and out ASAP – we will let you know when we are done.

  • wash hands and disinfect equipment before departing.

Questions we need answered before entering your property:

  • Do you have a confirmed diagnosis of Covid-19?

  • Are you a probable Covid-19 case?

  • Are you required to self-isolate and/or waiting for Covid-19 test results?

  • Do you have new or worsening respiratory symptoms?

Other notes on Traffic Light Red:

When we call from the driveway it will help if you can give us directions to the work area in the house and leave doors along the way open. (Note: we will not close the doors on leaving).

Please always stay well back from our staff : social distancing minimum is 2 metres.

There is standard paperwork that we need completed before work starts. This is best done beforehand by us emailing the form, and you completing and returning it electronically. If this is not possible, we will bring a blank form for you to complete. We will move back while you complete the form then return to photograph and upload it.

We are operating a contact tracing system. Our vans are GPS tracked. We need you to let us know if anyone outside your bubble is on site.

The Delta variant is more infectious. We must all be vigilant. We will do our best for you. Please be similarly considerate to our staff.
