Health & SafetyCreation date
COVID-19 continues to change lives every day – not only for those that have contracted the virus but for nearly everyone in the world. The Business climate is changing. Among all the unknowns are a few things that we can still count on. This will pass eventually, but not soon enough for most of us. Businesses and employees will get back to work and many will need to find a way to continue to work through this uncertainty. The question is: When the time comes, how do people return to work safely?
First though, it is important to share that Tradebe is included in the state / federal designation of essential services. This includes our plants, our service centers, our transportation fleet and our central business processing personnel and our Bio-Decontamination field teams.
Tradebe will remain open for business to service and support our clients, in order to help them stay open and service their customers.
Hidden Dangers of COVID-19
Many believe that unless there is a confirmed case of COVID-19 in a business location that the building and work surfaces are “safe”. This is one of the hidden dangers of the virus. We have heard in the news continuously that not everyone will get sick and even fewer will experience severe symptoms. However, many others will be asymptomatic yet still be carriers of the virus without ever knowing it. Every place they go, every surface they touch can be contaminated with COVID-19.
The CDC has reported that the virus can live on touch surfaces for hours, days and possibly longer depending on various factors including surface type, the amount of contamination, location and other factors.

Based on these reports from the CDC and others, any touch surface could be contaminated – not just where known cases have been confirmed. To err on the side of caution, all touch surfaces should be considered as possible contamination points until such time as the surfaces have been Bio-Decontaminated.
Time is of the Essence in Controlling the Spread and Cross-Contamination of Infectious Disease.
