BBC News reports Riskex’s free Fit2Work solution

BBC News has featured Riskex’s ground-breaking solution to help UK business back to work.  Speaking to James Sharp, CTO at Riskex, the TV report showed the tool’s questionnaire to gather information about employees’ health, with results displayed in a management dashboard.

With movement restrictions being lifted, the BBC also discussed the safety processes firms are using to prepare their workplaces.  Hazel Scanlon, Director at cleaning firm, SMS, explained how premises are fogged with anti-viral products, and the need for a schedule of ongoing cleaning.

Riskex has used SMS’s services for several years, and provided their free health assessment tool to help keep the SMS workforce safe during their front-line activities.

Free to Everyone

The tool has been made free to all UK organisations by Riskex, as their way of contributing to the UK’s efforts to get back to work and support the economy.  This has been made possible by sponsorship by Rackspace, one of the world’s leading hosting providers, supplying Riskex with the servers and bandwidth necessary.

Coming out of Lockdown

Any UK organisation can sign up and use this tool, as part of their strategy to return to the workplace.  This is key to organisations who have staff who cannot work from home and are emerging from lockdown.  It’s also a vital tool for those who can work from home – anyone either working, or on furlough is separated from management supervision, so this tool maintains contact and support.
