The Impact of Returning to Work in a SARS Environment

Although many sectors have either returned to work or are returning to work, they would have had to investigate methods to prepare the working environment to limit the spread of COVID.  On behalf of IET Safety Panel, I have been undertaking some research with regard to some of the best practice that may have been adopted to address the spread of COVID amongst the workforce.  Some of the findings are in the attached document.  Please feel free to read.  However, this document is not policy, it is there as guidance material.

If you have any additional practices that you wish to share please let me know.  Likewise, an area that still needs to be addressed is 'How to manage Skill Fade'?  If you have any thoughts or experience on the subject, please let me know.


Kind regards,

  • Hi John Beirne‍ 


    I have been wondering how airline pilots are keeping up to date with their flying during the pandemic.


    Don't they have to have to be flying so many hours per year in order to maintain their pilots licence? A bit like CPD? If they haven't flown for months will they have to go through some kind of re-training before they can get back on the flight deck?


    I'm sure this is probably one of the most important areas where there is a potential for skill fade that would need to be addressed! ?
