Empowering red meat processors to be capable of dealing with significant events, such as an infectious disease outbreak, is essential for the long-term viability of the industry. Recent events in Australia have shown that sudden COVID-19 outbreaks across States have led to swift shutdowns and enforced isolations. Businesses need to act now to protect themselves.
Are you prepared?
AMPC, in collaboration with Respond Global and Response Group, are encouraging its members to be prepared and put robust risk management frameworks in place now to mitigate the potential impact of outbreaks on their businesses and the industry in general.
Protect your workforce, your reputation, and critically Australia’s enviable position within the international red meat industry and be ready to respond when and if you need to.
Support for implementing plant-specific infectious disease management plans, including vaccination support, is provided through AMPC’s Plant Initiated Project (PIP) program.
The PIP program is designed to support plants and their respective facilities to implement a COVID-Safe framework that meets the expectations of the relevant regulatory departments and minimises the regulatory costs and burden to the company.
