When Your Business Suffers COVID-19 Exposure

6/17/2020 (Permalink)

Avoid spreading the virus by keeping everyone out of the area for at least 24 hours after exposure.

It isn't unusual these days to hear that an individual, not knowing that s/he was infected by the coronavirus, has visited several businesses in a town and unknowingly caused each of those businesses to take post-contamination steps. If you believe your business may have been subjected to coronavirus exposure, take the following steps to protect your community:

• Immediately close off all areas used by the individual
  
• Keep everyone out of the area for at least 24 hours
  
• Contact reputable cleaning professionals with COVID-19 training
  

While some businesses may consider handling the matter on their own, knowledgeable employers and business managers reach out to Ogden, UT, commercial cleaning firms.

Avoid Spreading the Virus

There are several reasons to hire professionals for coronavirus cleanup efforts. One of the most important reasons is that it's very easy to spread the disease. For example, it could be possible to transfer the virus from an infected surface to another by using the same cleaning cloth in both places.

Access Specialized Resources 

Another important reason to hire professionals is their access to resources aren't available to most individuals and even custodians. For example, a commercial cleaning expert may have access to industrial-grade personal protective gear that is specifically designed for the virus. These technicians may also have up-to-date training that isn't readily available to other professionals.

Focus on Business Priorities

When a crisis, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, affects a business, it can be easy to get sidetracked. When this happens, the company's main area of focus suffers. By hiring professionals to limit coronavirus exposure, employees are free to keep their focus on the primary goal of the company.

If your business has been affected by covid-19 exposure, take quick action. Hire professionals to handle the covid-19 cleanup and disinfection process. Involve your employees in the protocols established by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Keep your focus on the growth and well-being of your company.
