In the article, Dave makes the case that the health of buildings starts at the front desk. Now, more than ever, we understand the need for employees and visitors to avoid close contact — whether from COVID-19 or the flu. “To keep people healthy in a shared workspace, we need to set up systems that avoid unnecessary physical contact,” he writes. Fortuitously, a recent surge in touchless technology makes this problem highly solvable.
