How technology can help keep people safe
Security technology allows staff members to take proper distance from symptom tracking by providing no-touch screening and remote access control.
Two of the biggest challenges business owners face is tracking potentially sick people and then keeping them off the premises. Researchers have found that mass contagion events commonly originate with people who didn’t show outward signs of illness. As if that wasn’t enough, a number of people have acted aggressively toward employees when told to adhere to the safety protocols, in some cases yelling, spitting, and damaging property.
Procedures like non-touch temperature screening can support security teams by safely monitoring all individuals for mask-wearing and body temperature from a remote location. When a possible elevated body temperature is detected, an alert is sent to secondary screeners for a secondary reading and symptom screening.
When paired with a remote turnstile, temperature monitoring systems can identify people with elevated readings and prevent them from accessing your property. This no-touch, no-staff option is especially valuable for facilities that need 24-hour coverage at checkpoints.
Virtual temperature screening systems from ECAMSECURE can expedite turnstile access by measuring skin surface temperature of multiple individuals simultaneously, streamlining the process and shortening wait time for people in line.
When someone approaches the turnstile with an elevated body temperature, an officer from our U.S.-based UL-listed central station can communicate with them in real time.
