8. COVID Masks: Facing Safety and Environment

Phone, wallet, keys, mask... we live in a new world where we have one more thing to remember before we leave the house. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is something you're already familiar with if you work in manufacturing or the healthcare industry but now everyone knows what it is! An example of PPE is what we wear everyday to protect ourselves and each other from Covid: a mask! On this episode we talk about what the increase in single-use masks and gloves has had on the environment and what individuals and companies can do to reduce their impact. The first priority is always safety and following local guidelines and work guidelines. Please do what is within your means, protocols, and comfort level when it comes to any of our suggestions. Your safety comes first! We also wanted to express our gratitude and thanks to our frontline workers.
