The government has now released its plan to manage Covid-19 throughout the winter, warning the nation that we could soon be asked to work from home and facemasks could become compulsory in indoor settings once again.
This news will no doubt strike fear into CEOs and MDs all over the UK, as businesses look to recover from what has been a horrendous 18 months.

It’s now more pivotal than ever before that there are measures in place to allow companies to contribute to the British economy once again, and this is where the innovative CSC App comes in.

After introducing a simpler, more efficient self-test kit – which only has to be inserted into the tip of the nostrils rather than at the far back of the nose – CSC Tests developed a software solution that enables simple, clear tracking of tests and workforces through an easy-to-understand traffic light system.

This solution has since proved vital for large organisations as employers can track their workforce with the 99.8%-accurate CSC Tests once a result has been manually uploaded into the software. This is done by inputting the results into an app, along with a selfie and a phone’s unique IMEI number that tracks the devise’s geographic location at the time of upload. This result is then displayed in the software’s platform so employers have full visibility of their workforce and any test results.

One business in particular that has reaped the benefits of the app is the world-leading Worcester Bosch. Allan Ovington, Service Engineering Manager, said: “We used the CSC App to better control the safe working of Field Service Engineers and Apprentices who have had to work in pairs during the Coronavirus Pandemic. Giving these colleagues the opportunity to regularly take Lateral Flow Tests, and the ability to demonstrate their negative status to each other on the App, has given them greater confidence to work together.”

James Hyslop, founder of the CSC App, added: “Businesses have suffered so much since the start of the pandemic and those that managed to survive have now been hit with some potentially devastating news for the winter.

“This is exactly why we were so keen to provide a solution that will allow the UK to fulfil its full potential once again and we believe this innovative software can allow firms to trade safely at all times.”
