COVID 19 HIRE POLICY
In accordance with UK Government Guidance May 2020
The Pyjama Party Company agrees that, in line with Government guidance, business activities should only take place where we can establish social distancing, safe systems of work, and suitable protection measures for customers/staff and good disinfecting procedures for equipment.
All Payments must be made electronically in order to comply with the non-contact guidance that is currently advised.
Bell Tent/Dome Hire can only take place where equipment is hired in an enclosed and private back garden area with no access to public spaces. Teepee hire is only to be used in one room within the household and should not be moved between rooms after installation.
Use of the hire equipment must be for the householder and those living within the household or no more than 2 households (guidance from www.gov.uk 17/5/21). Customers must not allow, under any circumstances, persons who do not meet this criteria to use the equipment. Where customers are found in breach of this, The Pyjama Party Company reserve the right to immediately arrange collection of the equipment.
We are able to hire Bell tent/Domes for small outdoor social gatherings limited to 30 people outside of immediate family.
Cross-contamination between households will be eliminated by introducing a rest period of 3 days/72 hours between hire and additional cleaning before and after use.
Adequate PPE, namely gloves and a mask, will be worn on delivery and collection by staff from The Pyjama Party Company.
Equipment will be thoroughly cleaned /disinfected before it can be rehired. (additional notes on cleaning are available in Method statement and our risk assessment)
Soft furnishings that cannot be washed at 60 degrees will not be included in the packages. Duvet covers, sheets, mattress protectors and pillowcases for sleepovers for the hirer to use, will be washed and placed in a fastened bag 72hrs prior to delivery. Customers must supply their own duvets/doonas and pillows.
All duvet covers, sheets, pillowcases and mattress protectors must be stripped by the customer and placed in a fastened bin bag ready for collection.
The client must notify The Pyjama Party Company in advance of delivery if there are any members of the household who have tested positive for Covid 19 or are presenting with symptoms in the run up to hire or during hire. The Pyjama Party Company will also notify the hirer if at any point any members of our household become unwell with any symptoms of covid 19 and reserve the right to cancel the hire if this situation arises. This policy is in addition to the standard risk assessment and terms of hire which must be agreed to prior to hire.
Guidance may be subject to change at any time by government edict or at the discretion of The Pyjama Party Company.
