Coronavirus (Covid-19): What is the impact on Scotland’s Telecommunication Network?

C-PLAN’s priority is the continued provision of the telecoms network throughout Scotland for key workers and the public. We continue to work closely with our suppliers, business partners and clients to follow guidance from UK and Scottish Government as well as the NHS.

We are taking the following measures:

• C-PLAN’s office activities are closed to employees with the exception of essential operational workers.
• We have developed a re-induction package that will inform and issue control measures to all operational staff on the correct procedures to undertake whilst travelling to, working and travelling from operational sites. This will enable our staff to control issues with contamination.
• All operational staff have been provided with additional PPE/Sanitisation to control any potential contamination through dispersed water droplets including face protection and gloves with a policy to utilise these at all times.
• It will be necessary for C-PLAN to carry out some essential works to continue to make sure that residents and businesses alike continue to receive connectivity. You may see our frontline employees and key partners working to fix repairs and help facilitate expansion to bring more people online, which may require groundworks and machinery. Please be assured they are working to a high standard of hygiene practices with both yours and their safety as a priority.
• The guidance for working on-site for all operatives will fall in line with current Government guidelines whereby Social Distancing of 2 metres will be maintained (where practicable). In instances where the 2 metre guidance must be breached for operational reasons, operatives have been advised by C-PLAN’s safe systems of work to wear PPE that controls the risk of contamination.

As a result of the Covid 19 outbreak C-PLAN’s office buildings and public reception are currently closed and we are unable to accept communications by post. If you need to contact us please email us at Info@C-PLAN.net
