Bullet Points on MusicZon's Procedures to Reduce Covid Infection Risk

Covid


Reducing risks of spreading the disease

We have been reviewing our current procedures with the objective of helping to reduce spreading of Covid. Many of these procedures have been in place for a long time but we felt the need to formalise them and introduce new mechanisms to further help keep contact to the minimum and reduce the risk of introducing the virus.

Our full procedures regarding Covid Risk Reduction can be found here.

To be effective this must be a combined effort and so MusicZon will work with the venue, other event providers, the customer and guests.
