The pandemic of the new coronavirus (COVID-19) has significantly changed individual and collective habits and routines in Brazil and around the world. After all, reducing the rates of virus proliferation depends, in part, on the population.

While some business owners criticize the quarantine, there are companies that adopt social isolation to ensure the health and well-being of their teams, customers, suppliers, and, primarily, society as a whole.

In this regard, many companies came forward to support quarantine, especially organizations in the industrial sector – although the pandemic significantly affects the country’s economy.

Industry Position, Indices, and Projects During Quarantine

Social isolation to contain the spread of the new coronavirus has impacted the industrial sectors across the country. However, the industry, for the most part, did not release many employees, as many of the products and projects are essential for the population.

The majority of employees support the quarantine. Conversely, others show fear and insecurity regarding their jobs. After all, the pandemic has led to an uncontrolled economic crisis, causing many people to lose their sources of income.

To highlight the indices, according to the March 2020 Inflation Report from the Central Bank, the global economic scenario faces significant uncertainties due to the pandemic.

In addition, the report indicates that the spread of the coronavirus causes a significant slowdown in economic projects. As a result, the consequences of these impacts are reflected in various sectors, especially in the reduction of raw materials, such as the composition of the plastic injection mold.

Projects and Recommendations

Many industries are following the WHO recommendations and taking the necessary precautions with their employees; however, some are still exposing workers to risks, such as in crowded areas.

After all, the environment inside factories poses significant risks to employees and, consequently, to their families. However, according to professionals, projects cannot stop.

For industries that remain active, it is important to adopt measures that ensure the health and well-being of the team and the population. Therefore, we have outlined 5 basic precautions to keep economic indices high while simultaneously containing the virus.

Actions to Contain the Virus and Maintain Projects

The pandemic demands immediate actions. And, for the industry to maintain projects and process continuity, certain recommendations must be followed. Mainly, hygiene actions. See:

Hygiene

Ensuring a hygienic environment is fundamental – especially amid a pandemic. In this sense, make sure to clean faucets, doorknobs, the concrete floor, among other items, every hour.

In addition to this action, it is important to focus cleaning efforts on bathrooms, sinks, toilets, drinking fountains, turnstiles, machines, among other work equipment.

It is worth emphasizing that personal hygiene is valuable during this process. Therefore, provide 70% alcohol for the entire team and raise awareness among employees about the importance of this action.

Define Responsibilities

Another crucial action to handle this crisis moment is to define responsibilities for each activity. In fact, this is a great strategy to maintain indices and measure economic results.

In this regard, establish a crisis policy with the person responsible for each sector; that is, present the current economic scenario and ensure that the team understands the importance of maintaining production.

Additionally, keep employees informed about ongoing projects, growth actions, new systems, such as the double-sided printed circuit board, and the necessary strategies to navigate the crisis.

Finally, some industrial sectors cannot pause. After all, for the most part, industries are responsible for providing essential products for society.
