Our Commitment to Health & Safety

Updated Jan 10, 2022

The health and safety of our employees and guests remain our #1 priority. We will continue to be a leader in our community by following the guidelines set out by our local government to keep us all safe. We have assessed the risks at our workplace and have actively involved our staff and joint Health & Safety committee to address them. Working together we identified areas of concern, jobs and tasks that put risk to our guests and staff, shared tools and materials, and outlined high contact touch areas. To see how we have addressed these risks please see our Covid-19 Safety Plan below, formatted from WorkSafeBC. This Safety Plan also outlines the policies, guidelines, and procedures we have put in place to reduce Covid-19 Transmission. This Covid-19 Safety Plan is implemented at all three Point Group Hospitality restaurants including Coastal Cookery, Costa del Sol and Culaccino.
