Ensure the workplace is clean friendly places and carries enough hygiene 

• Make sure your workplace has cleaned surfaces (for instance – chairs, tables, and desks) and objects (landline telephones, mouse, keyboards et cetera)

Why disinfectants? When somebody touches the contamination present on such surfaces are one of the main ways that COVID-19 spreads at a large because the person who is touching the surface is not aware of the presence of that fluid substance

• Educate employees, contractors, and customers to keep sanitizers always hands if there is no soap and water at the places they visit 

Why hand-washing is important? We have a habit of twiddling our hands on the face and other parts of the body, so washing hands often kills the virus and prevents the disease from getting caught on hands.
