Posted by With vaccines now being distributed, the end of this awful COVID-19 pandemic is in sight. But we’re not there yet. For now, we still need to practice social distancing. How can you effectively use social distancing signs in your Plattsburgh, NY, business?
Social Distancing Remains Imperative To Protect The Health Of New York.
The year 2020 was tough for just about everybody. At Plattsburgh Creative Signs, our hearts go out to everybody who lost loved ones to COVID-19. But even for those of us who have been lucky enough not to lose somebody close to us, the coronavirus has still affected our lives for the worse. This is especially true if you own or manage a business in the Plattsburgh, New York Area. COVID-19 is going to be a factor for at least most of 2021, and most businesses cannot afford to take a whole year off. So, how do you stay open while protecting the health of your customers, clients, and staff?
Mask wearing is key. Mask wearing has been shown to reduce the possibility of transmitting the coronavirus. You can even go a step further and provide your staff with face shields. Frequent handwashing is also key, so it’s a good idea to offer hand-sanitizing stations at the entrance of your business. But these two measures alone are not enough. You need social distancing. Social distancing, or physical distancing, means keeping at least a six-foot distance from everybody around you, and you can facilitate this with signage.
What Are Social Distancing Signs?
Social distancing signs are signs that encourage social distancing. If you have a hand-sanitizing station at your Plattsburgh business’s entrance, you should also have a sign telling people to wear masks and socially distance in your business. You can also post these signs around your business. But perhaps the most effect social distancing signs are floor graphics.
Social Distancing Floor Graphics Are Often Just Vinyl Footprints Spaced Six Feet Apart.
Social distancing signs do not need to be complicated. Square floor graphics showing footprints, along with the words, “Please maintain a six-foot distance from other patrons”, or something to that effect, is really all you need. Another option are directional arrows. Let’s say you manage a grocery store in Shafter, for example. You can use arrows to indicate that the aisles in your Shafter grocery store are now one-way, thus reducing the chances of people bunching together in them.
