Employees are screened by either mobile self-service or health screeners, and the results are automatically recorded, with an optional QR code created for entry scanning. Depending on the results, individuals can be admitted or denied entrance. Reports can provide details on the return of employees into their facilities over time.
Additionally, the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) application helps to manage and monitor the physical safety of your workforce. In a single snapshot, it provides a comprehensive view of inventory by each facility, an aggregate score of the entire workplace, and historical data on how equipment levels have changed over time. Current inventory levels can be updated daily for accurate and real-time inventory management.

The solution uses data available the suite of applications like meeting participants, badge scans, on-location Wi-Fi access points, and other sources to identify employees that may have been exposed to an infected person while onsite. Contact tracers can be immediately tasked through Case Management to reach out to all potentially impacted employees to gather health information and help reduce exposure to others.
