Also known as physical distancing, social distancing is staying away and limiting as much contact as possible with other people. In the workplace, it is an essential practice, particularly if you want to keep your business going. No one is safe from the coronavirus. Any of your employees can get sick with COVID-19 and infect other people.
For many businesses, it is an incredible challenge. It is more important than ever to educate workers about why social distancing is necessary. The likelihood of catching the virus is amplified when you breathe in micro-droplets from a person who has just sneezed or coughed. Even exhaling can lead to its rapid spread.
Therefore, a four-square metre space for every person is required. Workers should also maintain at least 1.5 metres from other people whenever possible. This physical distance can reduce the potential of the virus from spreading.
