4. Keeping Employees Safe
Another quandary created by the pandemic: how to resolve the issue of making it safe for employees to return to the office. It’s likely that some companies will likely maintain mostly remote working conditions for the foreseeable future. However, others are slowly easing operations back to the office. One option to keep the work environment safe is to hire full-time porters who continuously wipe down common areas, door handles, and workstations with CDC-approved cleaning & disinfectant products. Installing protective plexiglass between workspaces, along with strategically placed wall hand sanitizer dispensers is another smart move. Some employees and visitors might feel safer wearing masks—having some on hand can be a good-faith effort to show your associates you care about their health. Finally, monitoring and adopting best practices and CDC precautionary guidelines is a must.
