Even though the resumption of business activities in India is now permitted in many areas and regions, the restart must be prepared. In the past few days we have already pointed out a hygiene concept as well as a concept for restarting machines and production facilities.
In response to requests from several companies, we specify that these concepts must be in place (taking all requirements into account) before business activities can be resumed. Numerous companies reported to us that they actually only started creating the concepts with their employees during ongoing operations (due to a lack of knowledge). Within just a few days, the first inspection visits by local authority employees took place, which then either led to the announcement of regulatory proceedings or even to attempts at coercion (“special fee”) due to the incompleteness of the concepts.
