As per as per recent research, human life has to accept that covid-19 virus is not going to come to a dead stop immediately. The lockdown will go away but the threat will loom large. Offices will have to start functioning and devise new strategy for covid-19 compliance.
The primary goal is to keep the employees safe. When employees are safe, the office remains safe and business continues. Employees can remain safe if they get right alert at the right time. A single employee who enters the office unknowingly with symptoms of covid-19 is enough to take the entire business down for weeks.
Need of the hour is temperature monitoring as it is the most clearly traceable symptom to detect covid-19. Temperature gun at the entry of office is a non-solution. Paracetamol is the most widely used over the counter drug that everybody takes in case of fever. And that is enough to pass through temperature gun. The only solution is continuous temperature monitoring of employees and making such data available by digital modes.
Wristbands with temperature sensors and wireless communication can non-intrusively report the temperature Trend of an employee passively through an app to HR departments allowing access control system to set automatic rules for activation or deactivation of office access.
