Today, businesses are required to take various infection prevention and control measures for Covid-19 including the introduction of work-from-home and staggered work hours programs, and social distancing in the office. Among such measures, an increasing number of businesses are trying to implement a free address workplace strategy for the purpose of social distancing as well as to utilize their office space more effectively. Yet, if there is any Covid-19 outbreak in the office, identifying employees who may have come into close contact with a Covid-19 infected employee remains a challenge.

To solve their challenge, transcosmos has developed a service that integrates DEC Connect, LINE Official Account, Slack and LINE WORKS to identify and notify employees who potentially have come into close contact with an infected employee in a free address workspace. With this service, businesses can confidently go with their free address workspace strategy.

By setting up signs with a QR code in a free address workspace including the break area, the service enables businesses to send a notice to members who are highly likely to have had close contact with a person infected by Covid-19 in the case of an outbreak of the disease in their office building. As a result, the service lets businesses implement infection prevention and control measures for Covid-19 rapidly and in an intended manner.
