As businesses have reopened after the coronavirus shutdown, workplaces are looking a little different these days. While many companies are offering a work-from-home option, not everyone has that opportunity.
Following all safety regulations and having protocols that protect against COVID-19 spread are essential to keeping stakeholders healthy and helping them feel comfortable, allowing your business to stay productive.
Operate Safely and Responsibly
Several states across the country are seeing COVID-19 cases increase after reopening businesses, so preparedness plans that implement protocols to protect employees, customers and the community are crucial.
To assist, we have created a toolkit to help your workplace operate safely and responsibly.

You will find tips for creating a preparedness plan, communication templates and easily printable signs to distribute throughout your workplace.
If someone associated with your business contracts COVID-19, we’ve included communication resources to alert both internal and external audiences without identifying the infected person.

Stay updated
In addition to these tools, make sure you are familiar with your state’s mandated regulations and always pay attention to guidelines issued by expert resources like the Centers for Disease Control and the World Health Organization.
They are constantly updating, so be sure to check back often.
Show empathy
We’ve all experienced adversity from situations surrounding COVID-19. Consider stakeholder concerns, home situations and suggestions when developing plans, protocols and any communication.
Now, more than ever, it is important to show employees you care. Not only is it the right thing to do, it helps maintain productivity.
