Covid 19 Policy

All Round Therapy Services values the health and safety of all our employees, clients, and stakeholders. This COVID-19 Policy includes our COVID-19 Response Plan and incorporates Federal, State, and industry guidance to ensure we are best positioned to avoid potential infection and contain potential virus spread.

All employees are responsible for the implementation of this plan and a combined effort will help contain the spread of the virus.

We will: 

• Continue to monitor our COVID-19 response and amend this plan in alignment with federal and state legislation, as well as industry guidance

• Develop a procedure to be followed in the event of someone shows or develops symptoms of COVID-19 while at work or in the workplace

 

Additionally, we will implement the below actions during periods of confirmed high community transmission of COVID-19 in Western Australia:
