Adequate cleaning and hygiene must be provided; if necessary, the cleaning intervals must be adjusted. This particularly applies to sanitary facilities and common areas. Regular cleaning of door handles and handrails also helps prevent infections. Sufficient distance must be ensured in break rooms and canteens, e.g. B. by ensuring that tables and chairs are not too close together. It is important to ensure that, if possible, there are no queues when food is handed out, when dishes are returned or at the checkout.

The work processes for these activities must be checked to see whether isolated work is possible if this does not pose additional risks. Otherwise, as small, fixed teams as possible (e.g. 2 to 3 people) should be planned in order to reduce changing contacts within the company employees during trips and work assignments outside the company premises. In addition, facilities for frequent hand hygiene must be created near the workplace for these activities. Furthermore, company vehicles must be additionally equipped with utensils for hand hygiene and disinfection as well as paper towels and garbage bags. When journeys are required for operational reasons, the simultaneous use of vehicles by several employees should be avoided if possible. In addition, the group of people who use a vehicle together &#8211; simultaneously or one after the other &#8211; should be limited as much as possible, e.g. B. by assigning a vehicle to a specified team. The interior of company vehicles must be cleaned regularly, especially when used by several people. Trips for material procurement or delivery should be reduced if possible and tour planning should be optimized accordingly.<\/p>\n<div id=\"gtx-trans\" style=\"position: absolute; left: 264px; top: 38px;\">\n<div class=\"gtx-trans-icon\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1700544257243{padding-top: 10px !important;}&#8221;]For transport and delivery services, options for using sanitary facilities must be taken into account when planning routes, as hand hygiene is only possible to a limited extent due to the current closure of many publicly accessible toilets and washrooms.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row triangle_shape=&#8221;no&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1700542658617{padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column]\n<h2 class=\"mkd-custom-font-holder\" style=\"font-size: 20px;line-height: 30px;font-weight: 700\" data-font-size= 20 data-line-height= 30>\n\t5.

If possible, these teams must be provided with their own shared facilities (sanitary rooms, kitchens, common rooms) in order to avoid additional burdens caused by shift use and necessary cleaning between uses by the individual teams. In principle, individual occupancy of bedrooms must be provided. Multiple occupancy of bedrooms is generally only permitted for partners or close family members. Additional rooms must be provided for the early isolation of infected people. Accommodation rooms must be ventilated and cleaned regularly and frequently. Dishwashers must be provided for kitchens in the property, as disinfection of dishes requires temperatures above 60\u00b0C. Washing machines must also be made available or a regular laundry service must be organized.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row triangle_shape=&#8221;no&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1700542658617{padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column]\n<h2 class=\"mkd-custom-font-holder\" style=\"font-size: 20px;line-height: 30px;font-weight: 700\" data-font-size= 20 data-line-height= 30>\n\t6. Homeoffice<\/h2>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1700544706893{padding-top: 10px !important;}&#8221;]If possible, office work should be carried out in the home office, especially if office space would have to be used by several people with insufficient safety distances. Home office can also make a contribution to enabling employees to fulfill their care obligations (e.g. children or relatives in need of care). The topic page of the New Quality of Work Initiative <a href=\"http:\/\/www.inqa.de\/\">(www.inqa.de)<\/a> lists recommendations for employers and employees on using the home office.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row triangle_shape=&#8221;no&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1700542658617{padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column]\n<h2 class=\"mkd-custom-font-holder\" style=\"font-size: 20px;line-height: 30px;font-weight: 700\" data-font-size= 20 data-line-height= 30>\n\t7.

Where experience shows that there are gatherings of people (time recording, canteen, tool and material distribution, elevators, etc.), protective distances for standing areas should be marked, for example with adhesive tape. Even when several employees work together, e.g. in assembly, the minimum distance between employees of 1.5 m should be guaranteed.

Psychische Belastungen durch Corona minimieren<\/h2>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1700545228963{padding-top: 10px !important;}&#8221;]The Corona crisis not only threatens and unsettles companies, but also creates great fear among many employees. Other aspects to be taken into account with regard to psychological stress include possible conflictual disputes with customers, long-term high work intensity in systemically important industries and social distancing requirements. These additional psychological stresses should be taken into account as part of the risk assessment and, based on this, appropriate measures should be taken.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row triangle_shape=&#8221;no&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1700545427170{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 50px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1700545268628{padding-top: 10px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Special personal measures<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row triangle_shape=&#8221;no&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1700542658617{padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column]\n<h2 class=\"mkd-custom-font-holder\" style=\"font-size: 20px;line-height: 30px;font-weight: 700\" data-font-size= 20 data-line-height= 30>\n\t15.

Instruction for managers ensures operational confidence and should be carried out centrally if possible. There should be a single point of contact and the flow of information should be ensured. Protective measures must be explained and information must be made understandable (including through information signs, notices, floor markings, etc.). It is important to ensure compliance with personal and organizational hygiene rules (distance requirement, \u201ccoughing and sneezing etiquette\u201d, hand hygiene, PPE). The information from the Federal Center for Health Education is also helpful for instructions.<\/p>\n<div id=\"gtx-trans\" style=\"position: absolute; left: 148px; top: -10px;\">\n<div class=\"gtx-trans-icon\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row triangle_shape=&#8221;no&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1700542658617{padding-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column]\n<h2 class=\"mkd-custom-font-holder\" style=\"font-size: 20px;line-height: 30px;font-weight: 700\" data-font-size= 20 data-line-height= 30>\n\t17.

Employees can seek individual advice from the company doctor, including about particular risks due to a previous illness or an individual disposition. Fears and psychological stress must also be addressed. The company doctor knows the workplace and suggests suitable protective measures to the employer if the normal occupational safety measures are not sufficient. If necessary, the doctor may also recommend a change of activity to the person concerned. The employer only finds out about this if the person concerned expressly consents. Occupational health care can be carried out by telephone; Some company doctors offer a hotline for employees.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row triangle_shape=&#8221;no&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1697455870159{padding-bottom: 50px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column]\n<h2 class=\"mkd-custom-font-holder\" style=\"font-size: 20px;line-height: 30px;font-weight: 700\" data-font-size= 20 data-line-height= 30>\n\tIII.
