Overview
Depending on how your ODBS operates, there may be other hazards you need to address in your Safety Management System. These could include:
- COVID-19 procedures
- operating on an industrial work/mine site; or
- natural disaster procedures.
COVID-19 procedures
If your ODBS undertakes trips where there is a high risk of COVID-19 transmission (e.g. transporting a COVID-19-positive person to a hospital), you should include COVID-19 as a risk in your Safety Management System and consider procedures to manage this risk.
Visit COVID-19 information for passenger transport industry for COVID-19 health and safety Information and other industry-specific advice.
It is also recommended that ODBSs and drivers keep up to date with the latest WA Government information regarding COVID-19, including health advice.
