What are farmers doing to ensure they are Covid safe?

All Victorian businesses are required to have a COVIDSafe Plan in place.

On farm COVIDSafe Plans must demonstrate:

  • actions to help prevent the introduction of coronavirus (COVID-19) to the workplace

  • the type of face mask or personal protective equipment (PPE) the workforce is required to wear

  • how they will prepare for, and respond to, a suspected or confirmed case of coronavirus (COVID-19) in their workplace

Businesses must review and update their COVIDSafe Plans regularly, especially when restrictions or public health advice change. Organisations with multiple worksites must complete a COVIDSafe Plan for each worksite.
