The World Health Organisation (WHO) has issued a guide on measures that organisations should take to prevent the novel coronavirus from spreading at workplaces. Some of these measures include:
Ensure that the workplace is hygienic and clean.
Encourage employees and visitors to wash their hands with soap or sanitise with an alcohol-based sanitiser regularly.
Place hand sanitisers in prominent places so people in the workplace can clean their hands regularly.
Advise employees to minimise personal contact with others.
Place paper towels or masks for anyone who is sneezing or has a cough to protect other people and put closed bins for their safe disposal.
Tell employees to stay and work from home if they experience even a mild increase in temperature (37.3C or higher).
In case of a meeting, make sure the room is well ventilated and that there is a distance of at least one metre between the attendees.
