It's because of the hard work of Western Australians that we have been able to get our State back on track and operate as close to normal as possible. What's important now is that we stay the course and keep up COVID-safe principles.
Starting tomorrow, certain businesses and venues will be required to maintain mandatory contact registers to support COVID-19 contact tracing.
To make the process as quick and easy as possible, the WA Government have released SafeWA, a free app which will provide businesses with a digital COVID-19 contact register system.
Businesses or venues required to keep a contact register include:
- Food and licenced venues (restaurants, cafés, bars, pubs, taverns, nightclubs)
- Gyms, indoor sporting centres and pools
- Places of worship and funeral parlours
- Beauty and personal care services including hairdressers and barbers
- Galleries and museums
- Cinemas, theatres and other entertainment venues
- Auction houses and real estate inspections
- Community facilities, libraries and halls
- Zoos and amusement parks
- Function centres
- Accommodation facilities that already have check-in arrangements in place (i.e. hostels, hotels, large camp grounds)
A paper-based register system will also be available.
