To report my office re breach of covid regulations?

[fairynick]

I think I am, and I most probably won’t, but I genuinely don’t know what else to do.
I work in a call centre. Lots off sales/service roles. Inbound, outbound, none are essential whatsoever.
We worked at home from March to June/Julyish time and I it was fine. Management were fairly impressed at how numbers and performance didn’t dip too much, and meetings were easily held via zoom etc.
There was no reason to bring us back to the office, except from loads of the workforce hated working from home as sales roles can be mind numbing it boring, were a young and friendly bunch and enjoy being in the office and the social side of things. Management were also keen because performance was generally better in the office.
Since being back there has been next to no provisions to keep staff safe. We have been spaced about the office in terms of where we sit, so every other desk on a bank is occupied rather than every desk. So there’s about a meter between when we’re working, definitely not two.
There’s a hand sanitiser on the wall when we walk in, which not everyone uses.
Kitchen is open as normal, everyone crowding round the brew making facilities, food kept in the fridge, microwaves used as normal. No wiping down after use etc.
Last week was Halloween so had Halloween games, ping pong table still in use with no sanitising when handling paddles and balls.
No use of masks in or around the office/building.
Now that the new lockdown announcement was made, we were told in our Monday morning meeting that were to remain open through this next lockdown, however if anyone would like to work at home then just let us know. One lad told them he would be working at home again after Thursday, and was drawn into the boardroom with management, until he was convinced not to.
We are in a tier 3 area.

Who would you report it to? HSE? Head office? News? Genuine question

Our company is polar opposite in terms of meticulously going over and above to keep things as safe as possible for those who have to be in the office. Most of us still at home.

Keep yourself clean and safe, wear a mask, minimise contact etc

I’d work from hime if I were you OP. Theg don’t sound like they’re serious about prevention at all.

It is the staff themselves that are failing to socially distance though, it is the staff not using sanitiser, the staff crowding the kitchen, whilst the employer should definitely step it up a gear. I assume you are not reception children and should be able to apply some common sense?

Report. If your workplace becomes the centre of a major outbreak which massively impacts the local hospitals etc, you'd never forgive yourself if you'd not done anything. There should be things like 1 way systems in place and staff should know there's a maximum of X number in the kitchen at any time. These rules should be reiterated to staff often. I'm not sure how you would report maybe you can call the local authority anonymously and they would ensure the right people deal with it. They can do spot checks on businesses.

It sounds like the issue is people poor behaviour. Your work is not forcing you to use the fridge or microwave, not forcing you to all go at the same time.

It sounds like they do need to be more proactive at getting people to act responsibly, but how are they actually breaking any rules?

Sounds like your colleagues are the problem not your workplace. They are Covid secure as they gave rules in place.....your colleagues are just not following them
