Corona Safety Measures for Your Business
Securing your workplace against coronavirus is an imperative need of the hour during this pandemic, it is integral for offices to enforce all the available precautionary measures at hand. WHO has reiterated that the Covid-19 is highly contagious and this pandemic should not be taken lightly.
Considering the current scenario it is crucial to carry out all the necessary precautions to stay safe from coronavirus. Businesses and individuals have to do whatever it takes in these trying times to try and contain the spread of this infectious disease.
Adhering to Stringent Regulations
Health Regulatory bodies have suggested maintaining a physical distance from others and avoiding close physical contact. An office is a place where several people are confined to a limited area and work together in close proximity. Incorporating measures such as distance between employees is the responsibility of each individual. Ideally, the distance between work areas should be around 2.5 sq. m. As far as possible people have been advised to work from home. However, most people do not have the required setup to be able to operate out of their home environment. This has increased the demand for space at shared office spaces.
Workplace Safety Rule
There are certain measures that an office can put in place to ensure general safety. Sanitization is one of the procedures suggested by the medical authorities to prevent the spread of Corona. WorkSocial has taken the initiative to enforce Corona safety in the shared office space. We are not only ensuring that the office area is cleaned meticulously, but we are also sanitizing all the common areas with disinfectant.
Compulsory Sanitization for Prevention
All those entering the office should sanitize their hands and avoid touching any items or areas of the office unless absolutely required. This precautionary action will ensure your personal safety as well as the safety of others in the same office environment. We strongly recommend that all those using the office space carry alcohol-based hand sanitizer and use it frequently. As a social responsibility WorkSocial also has hand sanitizer dispensers available at strategic locations around the office. Frequent washing of hands is also advisable.
Cafeteria Alternatives for Refreshments
The use of disposable coffee cups and spoons is another technique whereby we can avoid using items that may be infected. Most offices have cafeterias where food and beverages are served in reusable crockery. During this pandemic, offices should use disposable cutlery and crockery. WorkSocial has a disposable cup dispenser for drinking water and other beverages. Though these may appear to be small and trivial matters, it goes a long way in ensuring everyone’s safety
Securing Common Areas
All offices have certain common areas. The elevator is a common area where people are placed in close confines. The few minutes spent in such close proximity is enough to infect a person. For general safety, we advise that people do not rush to board the elevator when it opens, but remain patient. Only a few people should get into the elevator and ensure that it does not have more than a 50% capacity.
While in the elevator avoid facing one another. In fact, it is preferable to stand facing the wall with your back to the others. It may take a little longer to get to work, but these few minutes of waiting can save your life. After traveling in the elevator one must wash or sanitize their hands.
Taking Responsibility for Curtailing the Spread of Corona
These are dark days and it is a collective responsibility to stay safe and ensure that the others around us remain safe as well. We understand that businesses need to run and hence you need to come to the office to work. For this reason, we are open and welcome you into our corona safe environment.
Most people lack the setup to work well from home. A shared office desk gives you a proper place to work so your business keeps running.
