Unfortunately, as confirmed by DHHS, the first Chadstone case was a result of someone who had failed to self-isolate after family members were diagnosed with COVID-19. This person was a third-party contractor engaged by a retailer - they were not employed by Chadstone.

Our team is working closely with the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), supporting the department as it continues contact tracing and ensuring we have all relevant information to coordinate our response effectively.

Our priority is to ensure Chadstone is safe for everyone who is coming to our centre and relying on the service our centre provides. We have been rigorous in our commitment to cleaning, hygiene and sanitising – which has been acknowledged by the Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews and our Deputy Chief Health Officer.

We understand the ongoing concern around these recent cases and we will continue to share the latest information when appropriate.

The safety and wellbeing of our customers, retailers, team and the community is always our top priority, which is why we’re taking extra precautions to ensure our centres are clean and hygienic, including more thorough cleaning to high traffic and high touch areas.

We’re also asking everyone who visits us to practice healthy physical distancing and good hygiene.

We are taking additional precautionary measures and continuing to monitor government advice and announcements about recent cases in Melbourne.

• Where available, use our traffic counters and/or digital heat mapping to identify busy zones to help us to actively manage these areas before reaching customer density thresholds
• Automated alerts on occupancy, to actively monitor how many customers are in the centre at any time
• Automated, regular public announcements centre-wide, communicating distancing expectations
• Additional team members in-centre during peak periods, offering sanitiser and reminding customers of distancing guidelines

• Zero tolerance on anti-social or disrespectful behaviour

These are preventative measures that each of us can take to help keep our community safe.

Hand sanitiser we are using is supplied by Central Cleaning Supplies, and is a liquid hand sanitiser which is recommended for repeated use, for hands and other services that need disinfecting.
