The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has brought about widespread disruption in how everyday business processes take place all over the world. For workers in manufacturing settings, and as more employees slowly return to their workplaces with the easing of the quarantine restrictions, certain measures should be undertaken to minimize the chances of spreading viral contamination.
Given the close proximity in which workers operate in manufacturing lines, it is very easy for the COVID-19 virus which has multiple ways to spread among people, to infect an entire shift of workers. This would cause an enormous loss of productivity throughout the supply chain due to the sudden shortage of a large number of workers as a result of being isolated and quarantined. Hence, following best practices for social distancing, hygiene and disinfection is crucial for manufacturing-centric workplaces.
The guidelines and recommendations presented by the CDC will aid businesses in reducing transmission among employees, maintaining a healthy work environment, preventing disruptions in the supply chain and maintaining critical manufacturing infrastructure. We have broken down these guidelines into easy to follow actions that can be implemented at workplaces.
