BVRLA publishes back-to-work guidelines
The BVRLA has published an operating guide to help businesses in the vehicle rental and leasing sectors get back to work safely.
The 20-page guide provides sector-specific advice tailored for BVRLA members and others operating in the industry.
Vehicle rental operators have been exempt from business closure as many BVRLA rental members have played a key role in providing vehicles to key workers during the crisis, but for those operating in leasing, fleet management and many of the trade body’s associate member organisation, this week’s government announcement marks the first step in their return to work.
BVRLA chief executive Gerry Keaney said: “We must all work together to step up to this unprecedented and unforeseen challenge and I have every confidence that our industry, as always, will be innovative and resilient.
“During the past eight weeks we have focused on supporting members by keeping them informed of the financial support and endless stream of guidance and advice being issued from government. We have also been liaising daily with policymakers to ensure that the vehicle rental and leasing sectors needs have been considered when fiscal measures and guidance have been developed.
“This health crisis is not going to disappear any time soon and we must now look ahead at how we can support businesses in this new, post-pandemic environment. Ensuring that they can operate safely is key and this new guide will support that.”
