Contact Tracing for infection control with location technology

Contact tracing and proximity detection is still a must for securing on-going business and to avoid potential shut-downs. Favendo recommends the solution of the French world market leader for Low-power Wide Area (LPWA) connectivity solutions, Actility.

Companies from all industries face the challenge of having to protect their business base due to the continuing threat of the Corona pandemic. Digital sanitary policy enforcement and traceability solutions are an essential tool to help workers follow distancing rules and control their exposure to potential contaminations.

The ability to automate monitoring of new safety policies, while empowering employees as part of the new normal in business operations, is critical for any organization. 

Contact Tracing and Proximity Detection protects Business and Employees

Employees in particular must be protected through proximity detection, but also visitors and guests. Of course, companies must also meet public expectations for an appropriate hygiene concept and the possibility of contact tracing. The solution must be as safe as possible. At the same time, it must be as flexible, fast and uncomplicated to integrate into work processes as possible.

Whether it’s an office, a factory or a ship, every person within a shared space can be equipped with a portable proximity sensor to monitor their interactions. When the sensors register that two or more people have violated the proximity limit, it warns them with an acoustic or visual alarm.

Track all the interactions between the infected and healthy people

The ability to use proximity tags to track an interaction between two people in the aftermath allows companies to monitor potential spreading and to inform potentially exposed persons as quickly as possible. The technology makes it possible to keep the group of people affected by interventions as small as possible.
