Zeelo Launches Commutes for Essential Workers Amid Covid-19

With the recent outbreak of COVID-19, Schools and Education providers across the UK are being tested like never before.

The safe movement of staff has never been so important and with public transport services closing down and causing a risk to employees wellbeing we have decided to dramatically improve our service standards to be able to support Schools and Education Providers.

‍

‍

We’ve developed a pool of high-quality operators from our network to deliver a service that enables children of those employed in these key industries and those entrusted with their care to travel to and from work safely during this turbulent time.

Here’s what we’re doing:

‍

1 All services will be fully sanitised before and after each journey by trained drivers

2 Drivers will be fully suited in protective uniforms to reduce the risk of infection spreading  

3 There will be a no-contact policy onboard – Drivers will check riders' passes without contact to riders or their phones

4 We will cap the number of people on vehicles so that every affected child or member of staff has a spare seat next to them to reduce social interaction

5 Hand sanitiser will be offered on all services for riders

6 We can be fully flexible on a daily basis – taking people from temporary accommodations such as hotels and residential locations

Schools and affected children who have to attend Schools need a safe, stress and risk-free way to continue with their learning.

We are here to help where we can and support to oversee the operations of the services so you can focus on the most important job of providing learning for those affected during this challenging time.f you feel this could help your children and staff, please get in touch at john.meehan@zeelo.co
