While many people are working from home to keep themselves and their colleagues safe during the pandemic, some people do not have that advantage. As the reopening stages for the economy begin to reopen, many of us are now returning back to our desks and workplaces. Does the thought of returning to work make you question how sanitary and/or safe you are there? Well, rest assured - you are not alone.
While over the course of the last three months we have become more attentive of handwashing, it is also important to remember the importance of sanitizing frequently touched objects such as:
- Keyboards
- Microphones
- Phones
- Tablets
- Photocopiers
- Printers
- Work stations
- Gathering spots
- Washrooms
- Door handles
In the face of the pandemic many companies are doing their part by implementing different disinfecting, sanitizing and cleaning protocols as they welcome you back to the workplace. It is beneficial for the safety of yourself and others that you follow protocol and do your part to enforce social distancing. Wear a mask when/if possible, wash your hands frequently, and try to limit touching your face and eyes. If we follow all these measures we will continue to combat this virus while easing the burden on the healthcare system that is a lifeline to our society.
See this blog post for more information on how to properly clean and disinfect surfaces.

Easy swaps to begin your Plastic Free July 2020
Single-use plastic culture is endangering the environment in countless ways. Plastic pollution literally exists everywhere. In the oceans, in the soil, in the air, we breathe, and also in our food chain. With the ongoing pandemic, the rate of single-use plastic consumption has reached an all-time high.
This July, it is more important than ever to follow the Plastic Free July challenge. The main aim of Plastic Free July is to minimize the use of disposable items, especially single-use plastic. While eliminating all the plastic from your home can be overwhelming, you can decide which items you want to swap initially.
