As businesses re-open and scale up their operations this summer, we’re seeing an unfortunate increase in the number of COVID-19 cases.
This is why it’s important for companies and workers to do more than just wear masks, wash their hands, avoid touching their face, and maintain social distancing in the weeks and months ahead. It’s also critical to disinfect and clean the mobile devices you may be using in your workplace.
A device cleaning policy should be in place and enforced in your organization to ensure that employees are properly disinfecting their devices on a regular basis.
But the methods and solutions you use to clean and disinfect your devices will vary, depending on each device and its design and materials.
Fortunately, if you use Zebra enterprise mobile devices, there’s an easy way to find out exactly how to sanitize your devices and protect your workers and your workplace at this crucial time.
Our partners at Zebra Technologies have created an easy-to-use and interactive portal for finding the specific sanitizing guidelines for your Zebra devices.
There are different guidelines for healthcare-grade vs. non-healthcare devices, and there are categories for barcode scanners, printers, mobile computers and tablets, and Bluetooth low-energy location services products.
Visit Zebra’s Sanitize for Safety portal to access disinfection and sanitizing guidelines for all applicable Zebra products.
In Zebra’s guides, you’ll find step-by-step instructions on how to thoroughly disinfect each device’s casing, buttons, screen (if applicable), and more. You can also confirm which cleaning agents are safe to use, including the purity or formulation levels for each ingredient.
If anything is unclear or you have questions, contact our team AbeTech, and we’ll be happy to help.
