PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Click and Collect Services: Coronavirus (11 February 2021)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, if he will (a) list the types of business that are eligible to operate a click-and-collect delivery policy during the covid-19 lockdown announced in January 2021 and (b) provide the risk assessment for covid-19 transmission for each of those business types.

Asked by:
Esther McVey (Conservative)

Answer

All retailers, both essential and non-essential, can offer click-and-collect services during the current national restrictions.

We have published safer workplace guidance which provides information to help employers make their workplaces COVID-Secure for their employees, visitors, and customers. The guidance does not replace existing employment, health and safety or equalities legislation. It provides information to employers on how best to meet these responsibilities in the context of COVID-19.

Each individual business should complete a risk assessment which should be shared with their employees.
