Covid Protocol for Staff

We would like to share some important updates regarding our COVID-19 approach and health and safety in the workplace.

Effective from Monday 25th September 2023, COVID-19 will be subject to the same rules as any other illness. This change in our approach reflects the progress we have made in understanding and managing the virus as well as the approach adopted in several industry sectors including higher education.

Flexible Work Options: If you are diagnosed with COVID-19, you have the option to work from home. However, this arrangement must be agreed and approved with your line manager. If you are feeling well enough to work on campus, you are welcome to do so. However, please be mindful of your colleagues, our students and potential spread of the infection.

Sick Leave: If you're too ill to work due to COVID-19 or any other illness, follow our sickness policy and procedure as normal.

Thank you for your hard work and adaptability throughout the challenges posed by the pandemic.

If you have any questions regarding these updates, please contact HR via HRHelp@bishopg.ac.uk.
