10-pointer Checklist for Employees in Post COVID Work Scenario
Employees are the backbone of any business. The recent pandemic has left everyone anxious and organizations like Ashish Interbuild are doing their best to make sure that business operations begin smoothly and without any danger to all the people involved. But it is also the responsibility of the employees to make sure they are abiding by the rules.
Here we provide a checklist for employees who are returning to work-
1. Travel Safe- If you are supposed to re-join work from the office, make sure to travel by your own vehicle. Avoid public transport. Follow the guidelines framed by local authorities like travel single on two-wheelers & 1+2 passengers in four-wheelers.
2. Wear a Mask- Wear a mask whenever you leave home. Make sure you have a mask on when you communicate with someone from outside your home. Ashish Interbuild provides masks & protective gear like gloves to all the workers on-site & makes sure they adhere to the usage guidelines.
3. Entry-Exit checkpoints- We at Ashish Interbuild have taken measures to check each & every employee during entry & exit. Make sure you abide by them. Do follow temperature checks & sanitization guidelines given by the company.
4. Social distancing- You will be working in close contact with your colleagues & clients after a long gap. Make sure you maintain optimum social distance. Avoid shaking hands & getting close to other people. Social distancing guidelines are followed very strictly with Team Ashish Interbuild.
5. Hygiene & Sanitization- Sanitize your hands regularly. Sanitize your workspace. Avoid touching your hands to your face. Maintain good personal hygiene. Wash your hands before & after eating & going to the restroom. At Ashish Interbuild we have made sure to install touch-free dispensers on-site & in offices. We encourage our employees to sanitize often.
6. Avoid ordering food- It is still not considered safe to have outside food. Avoid eating food from outside. Carry your home-cooked food in your tiffin. Also, if possible do not share food directly from the tiffin.
7. Disinfection of things- Disinfect groceries & vegetables you carry home. Wash the items with a disinfectant & only then use them. If you cannot wash, make sure to keep them isolated for a period of 12 to 24 hours.
8. Communicate Illness- If you do not feel well, contact your HR or manager, and leave from work. You can seek medical attention if you have a fever to avoid further illness. We at Ashish Interbuild give personal attention & support to our employees in such scenarios.
9. Precautions at home- After you reach home, make sure you take full care of your hygiene and only then mingle with your family members. Taking a bath & washing your clothes are good practices as you might have been subjected to the infection. Stay away from children & elderly people.
10. Mental health- Covid-19 pandemic has taken a toll on the mental health of many people due to future uncertainties. Make sure to reach out to someone if you are feeling low or depressed. We encourage our staff to seek the help of a professional mental health worker if required.
These are some essential pointers that you need to consider before re-joining your office. Team Ashish Interbuild is ready to tackle the next phase of the pandemic. We have taken measures by installing touch-free dispensers, regular health check-ups for our on-site workers, training the team to maintain social-distancing & hygiene guidelines. The coming phase does not mean that we are out of danger yet. It just implies we must be extra careful and follow all rules & regulations to function smoothly for the mutual benefit of ourselves & our clients.
