Reminding people of safe social distancing practices

As part of the easing of lockdown - particularly in retail, hospitality and schools - ensuring clear, regular guidance for customers, staff, visitors or students on safe social distancing practices is key to ensuring everyone's safety and wellbeing.

The latest Axis C1410 IP Speaker provides the ideal solution for triggered, automated messages to remind people of social distancing and COVID-Secure practices and procedures. This latest wallmount version of the Axis network speaker range now features a built-in PIR, which allows for automated, pre-recorded messages to be played whenever someone passes by and triggers the PIR.

So when staff, visitors, students, etc pass the speaker, the PIR sensor can trigger a single or series of pre-recorded messages which could be reminders to 'follow safe social-distancig practices', reminders to 'follow the one-way system', 'stay 2 metres apart' or simply to 'read the COVID-safe procedures in the reception area', for example.

The C1410 Network Speaker can be set to replay one or many messages in a series, as well as setting frequencies of replay to ensure the same message isn't triggered repeatedly by a group of people.

This is a simple and highly effective opportunity to communicate and to remind everyone of best practices to ensure a safe and successful return to normal for all businesses and schools post-lockdown.

What is a COVID secure workplace?

As more and more people are returning to work following the easing of lockdown, businesses and places of work are required to ensure that staff and customers are able to operate in a 'COVID-secure' environment.
This requires businesses and facilities to make certain changes and considerations to ensure safe social distancing, hygiene procedures and the use of PPE where required.

Some of these simple COVID-secure measures include staggering arrival and departure time of staff, implementing one-way flow routes through the building, creating 'contactless pathways' through the building (eg. contactless access control, automated door releases, etc) and introducing additional hand sanitizer stations at entry/exit points.

Additionally, ensuring 2 metre distancing throughout through work station layout re-arrangement, reduced staff numbers in closed spaces and clear signage also assist in creating a COVID-secure environment in order to prevent the further spread of Coronavirus through contact in the workplace.
