As a leading chauffeur company, FC Chauffeurs are taking unprecedented steps in training all their chauffeurs to ensure that they follow correct safety procedures, for both their clients and themselves. FC Chauffeurs drivers are following all the government recommendations for transport providers to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

Even when lockdown restrictions have been relaxed, FC Chauffeurs know that it is important to recognise that social distancing measures will continue for some time.

 

Chauffeur Hygiene Procedure

Should a chauffeur become aware that they have had contact with an infected individual, they will immediately withdraw from service and self-isolate. Our drivers remain vigilant with their personal and vehicle hygiene procedures and continue to monitor their own health.

At the end of a journey, once the client has arrived at their destination, the chauffeur will wash his or her hands thoroughly, before turning their attention to the sanitisation of the vehicle.

 

Vehicle Hygiene Procedure

Before each and every client, the chauffeur will ensure that the seats, door handles, and all the surfaces have been sanitised, before washing their hands again.

 

Greeting Procedure

Your chauffeur will offer you hand sanitiser and wipes upon your arrival. He or she will refrain from contact with you, including shaking hands.

 

Sit behind the Chauffeur

Chauffeur-driven travel should be relatively safe during a pandemic, nevertheless, a car is an enclosed space. There have been no scientific studies, but experts recommend the safest place to sit is directly behind your chauffeur.

 

Magazines and newspapers

The World Health Organisation (WHO) warned that banknotes may develop into a public health risk as they change hands frequently, picking up bacteria and viruses along the way. This is why FC Chauffeurs do not offer daily papers or magazines while this is ongoing, as these are objects we touch every day, that could become key to the spread of the coronavirus.
