COVID19 & SAFETY SPECIAL FEATURE
they have to as they are deemed ‘at risk’. Companies now need to work hard to ensure that all employees are connected, this is imperative for ensuring team morale, welfare, mental and physical health and personal safety. From automated monitoring systems that
initiate home-worker employee welfare checks at specified times; to communication devices that integrate radio and smartphone technology for on- and off-site communication, as well as lone worker protection all in one device; and wireless asset condition monitoring solutions, there is now a raft of technology that can help organisations address both their employee duty of care and ensure they are well prepared to manage during the coming months. Many companies are looking for solutions to
reduce the risk of COVID-19 by screening staff and visitors coming to site and some companies have already deployed manual or automatic temperature measure processes. For organisations planning to re-start operations or open facilities, a solution to reduce the risk of spreading infections and increase safety for staff and visitors is crucial. There are multiple solutions available,
however one key aspect is the ability to deploy a solution quickly and easily, even without the need of third-party implementation onsite. Temperature screening terminals positioned in the entrance of buildings can be set up

Those businesses that are quickest out of the blocks with a revolutionary view of working, will steal a march on those stood in the corner still
reeling from the punches brought about by the seismic shift caused by Coronavirus. Getting prepared now for the new ‘normal’ where business is conducted remotely as the default setting (with face to face limited to essential) and protecting those who are now returning to factories and warehouses, relies on fundamental changes not only for business infrastructure, but also business thinking. We have just fast- forwarded into the future and it is here to stay. Businesses need to adapt – fast.
