On today’s episode, we’re going to be talking about Working from Home.
I just received a notification from LinkedIn about a post entitled “Workplace Re-Entry: When Is It Happening?” For those individuals considered non-essential, I think restrictions are here to stay for a while. And if you haven’t been released from distanced duties yet, I wouldn’t hold your breath. So my answer to the LinkedIn Post was, “Not Soon!” Of course, I’m not in charge of or privileged to any information to make accurate predictions on the matter. In my opinion, a better question would be, “What do you do when you’re essential and working from home isn’t an option?” Like it or not, warehouses have to keep working or almost everything comes to a stop.
We spoke about this on a recent episode, but it’s worth mentioning again. Although this is a high-level list of things to do, they are musts for being allowed to keep working in a distanced culture.
By now, your facility should have measures in place for social distancing. This will include an action plan, and in most cases, signs or floor markings reminding you of those plans in reference to where you are at the time. Knowing, and even more importantly, following those plans, signs, and floor markings will be half the battle.
Wearing appropriate PPE, especially masks and gloves.
Following your Kindergarten Rules. Wash and keep your hands to yourself and cover your mouth by coughing and sneezing into your elbow.
Stand apart (generally 6 ft) from fellow staff whenever possible. And stagger breaks and lunches to limit the number of people together in the same space.
If possible, implement one-way traffic flows.
Sanitize whenever appropriate.
Most of these things have become second nature, but if we can just continue doing them hopefully, our warehouses will stay on the essential list!
