Social Distancing, a Guide for Retailers
The motion
That the Parliament welcomes the publication of Social Distancing: A Guide for Retailers on how to implement Government advice by the Scottish Retail Consortium in association with USDAW; notes that it includes detailed implementation practices for non-food retail stores to help them operate safely and protect staff and customers as and when there is a government-easing of the COVID-19 lockdown, which permits more trading; understands that it draws on the industry’s existing guide for retail warehouses and the experience of pharmacy, pet food and grocery retailers during this crisis, which has shown that is possible to operate safely and responsibly in this new environment, regardless of the size of premises, and commends this guide to the wider retail industry and other customer-facing sectors of Scotland’s economy as they prepare to get the economy moving again.
