What are we doing to work safely for you

As a result of COVID-19 we have made major changes to our logistics and warehouse operations to ensure the safety of all our team members.

 
What have we done –

• Social Distancing – We have reviewed our internal logistics organisation around high traffic areas to establish distance controls and to ensure our team are always 2 metres apart. This has taken some time, it has necessitated IT system changes and a re-lay out of specific areas in our warehouse.

• PPE – All warehouse and logistics staff are provided with quality gloves and masks thereby helping to reduce risk.

• Hand sanitiser - all team members will have easy access to hand washing facilties and we have put procedures in place to ensure that they use these facilities once they have entered site, every hour, before and after eating, before leaving site. We have also put in place regular daily deep cleans.

• Team and Order Limits – We are limiting the number of team members in the warehouse at any one point by introducing new shift patterns. As such we may have to limit the number of orders we take each day.

• Vulnerable colleagues are self isolating, and office staff are working from home where ever possible.

We are continuing to work hard to ensure that our staff and customers can safely continue to access our full services.

From us all at Cookson Dental please stay at home and follow Government Guidelines and we hope to return to full operation once it is safe to do so.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your understanding and continued support during these unprecedented times.
