PIER WATER SPORTS COVID-19: 6 STEP SAFETY PLAN
-
Step One - Assess Work Place RisksRisks assessed in Pier Water Sports due to the COVID-19 outbreak have been discussed between employer and employees. Such risks include: - We have identified areas where customers may gather or line up in close proximity. - We have identified where employees will share work spaces; kiosk space, compound, boats and/or vehicles. - We have identified areas where employees will come into close contact with customers or members of the community such as kiosk counters, boat docks and deck space. - We have identified the equipment and machinery shared by workers, as well as may be used by customers. - We have identified high traffic and high touch areas in the work place such as counter space, point of sale pin pads, pens, clip boards/paper, computer keyboard/mouse, telephones, light switches, water cooler, refrigerator, whistles, 2 way radios, life jackets and deck railings.
-
Step Two - Implement protocols to reduce the assessed risksThe list below is of the following protocols to minimize the risks of COVID-19 transmission: - We have spaced out physical distancing markers in 2 meter increments in our customer line up. - We may have up to two or three workers in the kiosk to maintain physical distance. - We have implemented only two customers at each window (only if they are family) spaced at the appropriate distance from second kiosk window. - We have spaced out safe exiting space from deck to beach area and then to dock. - We have installed plexi glass barriers in our service windows for safety between customer and employee. - We have supplied face shields and or masks to dock employees to prevent spittle contact between employee and customer. - We have implemented new cleaning protocols in where we have reviewed the information on cleaning and disinfecting surfaces in order to ensure the safety of staff and customers including watercraft equipment and lifejackets. - We have installed hand sanitizing stations at customer service windows as well as inside the kiosk for employees.

Symptoms include fever, chills, new or worsening cough, shortness of breath, sore throat, and new muscle aches or headache. - Anyone directed by Public Health to self-isolate. - Anyone who has arrived from outside of Canada or who has had contact with a confirmed COVID-19 case must self-isolate or 14 days and monitor for symptoms. - Customers and members of the public adapt to restrictions or modifications to the workplace. - Our policy addresses workers who may start to feel ill at work. It includes the following: - Sick workers should report to first aid, even with mild symptoms. - Sick workers should be asked to wash or sanitize their hands, be provided with a mask and isolated. - Be asked to go home (consult the BC COVID-19 self-assessment tool or call 811 for further guidance related to testing and self isolation). - Clean and disinfect any surfaces that the ill worker has come into contact with.

We will involve the input of our employees and concerned customers. - We plan to monitor risks and adjust our policies and procedures as necessary. - Workers know who to go to with health and safety concerns. - When reassessing and resolving safety issues, we will consult the worker health and safety representative.
