Risk Assessment Approach & Purpose

This document is individual to us and has been developed with Bridleway B& B business and our operations in mind. It takes into consideration both our customer journey and our duties.

This document forms part of our Health & Safety management system and is referenced within our business’ Health and Safety policy.

By tracing the routes and tasks that people will typically take, either to carry out their jobs or as customers, we have set out a list of risks and concerns on the transmission of COVID-19; and subsequently how to take action to reduce these risks.

By setting concerns and control measures out in a logical way this will give confidence to show that that due consideration and diligence has been undertaken.

Customers will be advised in advance of their visit of actions taken, because of the COVID-19 Risk Assessment, to give confidence that Bridleway B&B has considered everyone’s safety.

The controls set out in this document will be specific for Bridleway B&B and our operation, considering how the business operates, and how customers use the premises and interact.

We will review this document regularly to ensure we have considered any changes in national guidance.

HAZARD

Coronavirus is a respiratory virus that can invade a host via the respiratory route or via hand to eye/mouth/nose contact, causing the disease COVID-19.

People who appear healthy may be carrying and shedding the virus, which can be passed on either directly or indirectly to others. This means we need to assume that anyone could be carrying the virus.

The main routes of transmission (the risks)

Direct contact to face – eyes, nose from droplets or aerosols spraying from an infected person onto another person who is in close contact.
Contamination via droplets from sneezing and coughing landing on surfaces and then transferring via hands on to eyes and nose and mouth. Other means of secretions getting on to surfaces could be from infected people touching their eyes, nose and mouth and then touching surfaces with contaminated hands.
Contaminated hands of infected people can transfer the virus directly to others (e.g. handshakes) or on to hand contact surfaces which can be picked up by other people’s hands and transferred to their eyes, nose or mouth.

The main controls are:

Wearing a mask
Social distancing in accordance with government guidelines
Disinfecting hand contact surfaces
Hand washing and hand sanitiser use at key moments
Not touching eyes, mouth or nose with contaminated fingers
