As we move into the colder months of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic that has taken the year by storm shows no sign of providing relief to businesses that are suffering unforeseen consequences.
Cautionary measures are being taken across the board to ensure that businesses can remain open while maintaining health and safety guidelines. With as many preventative measures as possible, it’s no surprise that there is a high demand for glass safety barriers.
In the form of transparent glass partitions, safety barriers, also known as sneeze guards, can be implemented in different ways across public-facing businesses to ensure the safety of both employees and clients against droplets from coughing or sneezing.
This “new normal” of seeing glass partitions installed across various points of contact is just one step to making the community feel safer as businesses reopen and resume services as best they can in the current circumstances.
Glass safety barriers installed in the correct locations can be a great protective shield between frontline workers and the customers and clients they interact with daily.
Glass Barriers and Sneeze Guards can be used in:
If you walk into a grocery store today, for example, you’ll most likely find a glass safety barrier installed at check-out stations and front counters to protect cashiers as they accept payments or complete transactions.
Another popular use case for glass safety barriers is for businesses that offer pick-up or drop-off services, whether it’s food, parcels, or any kind of product. Using glass barriers at these pick-up windows and counters helps businesses run smoothly while keeping everyone healthy and safe.
Establishments that offer indoor seating can prepare for reopening by installing tall glass barriers between tables or booths. This allows you to enforce social distancing and social bubbles, so each circle of customers can dine or socialize safely, in their own protected space.
In a workspace or office environment, transparent glass safety barriers between cubicles or open-concept office desks would allow for employees to collaborate and work together while keeping their distance and remaining safe.
Not only will these glass barriers help enforce distancing rules and make sure health and safety guidelines are in place, they also provide a feeling of safety to everyone in your business. Both your employees and your customers can sense that you’re valuing their wellbeing and taking their safety seriously when they see your glass barriers.
Any organization would be struggling without the loyalty and support of its patrons, and this is difficult to do if measures to protect their own and the community against COVID are not taken seriously.
Glass barriers are only one part of the equation when it comes to social distancing and health guidelines. You can do your due diligence by strategically placing your glass partitions around busy, high-contact points in your business. But you should also consider using sneeze guards or face shields, face masks, hand sanitizer stations and directional signage to make it easier for everyone to follow your community safety guidelines.
