Placing your safety at the heart of our events

All Informa events will be run according to official government and local authority guidance in the first instance, as well as any venue or location-specific regulations. In addition, Informa Australia will follow ten Informa AllSecure priority commitments.

 

Attendees who are not subject to any of the above conditions should acknowledge the following:

• at all times, maintain social distancing measures (as per the government guidelines) with respect to other visitors and staff
• maintain good personal hand hygiene by washing their hands regularly and thoroughly and/or using hand sanitiser
• maintain good respiratory hygiene by coughing or sneezing into their elbow or a tissue, and then disposing of tissues immediately
• provide their name and contact details and consent to Informa providing their name and contact details to the Department of Health or any other third-party government department, as required to enable contact tracing procedures

 

Cleaning & Hygiene

 

1. Enhanced cleaning
Informa Australia will be working with venue partners to provide the highest standards of hygiene and cleanliness by undertaking enhanced, deep cleaning before, during and after our events. This includes continuous sanitisation throughout the course of an event, with a focus on high-touch areas such as door handles, restrooms and food and beverage areas.

 

2. Personal hygiene
Informa Australia will be working with venue partners to provide hand sanitising stations throughout the event space, encouraging all participants to regularly wash and disinfect their hands.

 

Physical Distancing

 

3. Reduced-contact registration
Informa Australia will employ a system that facilitates reduced-contact registration for participants.

 

4. Physical contact
Informa Australia will request that participants avoid physical contact, such as handshakes and embraces, promoting alternative ways to greet business partners. The exchange of printed materials, such as business cards and sales brochures, will also be discouraged, with digital alternatives recommended.

 

5. Physical distancing
Informa Australia will maintain a density of participants in line with local authority regulations and venue or other relevant guidance. This will be managed through one or more control measures such as pre-show communications to participants, a one-way traffic system, on-site signage and floor markings.

 

6. Food and beverage stations
Informa Australia event teams will work closely with venue partners to employ the highest standard of food safety for our event catering, in line with local authority regulations and venue or other relevant guidance.

 

Protect & Detect

Informa Australia events will have access to a qualified first aider. Participants will be asked not to attend if they are feeling unwell, and teams will follow local health authority guidance on detecting and managing anyone who displays symptoms of COVID-19.

 

9. Screening
Informa Australia will follow local authority regulations and venue or other relevant guidance on screening participants. This may include checking the temperatures of everyone on entry, through thermal scanning or other screening processes.
