Covid-19 Risk Assessments no longer required for most businesses in England and Scotland

Now that coronavirus restrictions are being replaced with public health advice, the HSE have updated their website to say that they no longer expect all organisations to consider Covid-19 in their risk assessments or to have specific measures in place.

Higher risk activities such as laboratories handling virus specimens or health and social care working with infectious patients will still be expected to carry out risk assessments and have control measures in place.
