For ongoing advice, Point to Point Transport drivers should refer to the Australian Health Department advice including:

• Drivers do not need to wear a mask if you are healthy

• Wash hands often with soap and water

• The use of alcohol-based hand sanitiser is advised between hand washes and after opening and closing doors, moving luggage, exchanging payment and after personal contact

• Drivers should employ standard cleaning practices at the end of each shift, as part of good hygiene practice by wiping down surfaces with disinfectant

• In the event of a passenger spreading droplets (such as sneezing, coughing or vomiting), clean surfaces with appropriate disinfectant wipes so that the potential spread of infection can be minimised

• Customers are encouraged to use contactless payments where possible, to further reduce chances of community spread

• For those services that do not offer contactless payment, we are advising people to wash their hands or use hand sanitiser to limit the spread of viruses.
