Ruffled Truffle Enhanced Hygiene Plan

It is our goal to make our workplaces safer, healthier and more hygienic for all our employees, clients and vendors during the current crisis. In order to achieve this goal, Ruffled Truffle have developed an enhanced hygiene plan, to help mitigate exposure to a variety of infectious diseases including COVID-19.

We created these guidelines based on common sense practices combined with information based on www.gov.uk guidelines. The following pages outline our plan which we hope will enable our employees and guests to feel comfortable and safe as they work and attend Ruffled Truffle events.

SAFETY AND HYGIENE GUIDELINES

• Ruffled Truffle premises and off-premise venues
