EXITING LOCKDOWN: LATEST TECHNOLOGY HELPING STAFF
FEEL SAFER AS BUSINESSES GET UP AND RUNNING AGAIN
Research shows that large
numbers of the public are
still wary about venturing out
without a lot of persuasion
that they’ll be safe, even to
return to much-needed work.
It’s a challenge for facilities
managers across the country to
reassure people, safeguard their
buildings and protect, as far as is
possible, those who work in and
visit them.
One proven solution is the new
Body Temperature Detection
Cameras, now available from
Clearway Environmental
Services. They o er organisations
across the spectrum a way to
monitor people without physical
contact, and thereby reduce the risk of viral
spread in workplaces and other settings.
These small thermal cameras can help detect
elevated body temperature which may indicate
the presence of a fever. With technology o ering

accuracy of down to ±0.1°, it can take such a
camera less than a second to detect someone’s
temperature, thus allowing large numbers of
people to be screened at the same time whilst
on the move, i.e. through a turnstile or entry
gate/doors. As people pass one
of these cameras, built-in audio
will trigger an alarm to notify
operators immediately when a
person with an elevated body
temperature is detected, enabling
their admission to a building or site
to be temporarily prevented until
their temperature can be checked
again personally with a manual
thermometer.
Clearway is currently seeing a
huge surge in interest in these
easily installed, small cameras and
believes they are one of the simplest
and best ways for employers, H&S
and facilities managers to reassure
sta , visitors and the public in
these uncertain times that their
workplace, travel or retail destination is being
protected as far as is possible. It’s also going to
assist the hospitality and leisure trade to get
back on its feet when venues are allowed to start
opening up again.
