>> tech for success | REWORKING THE WORKPLACE<br />

>> “Deep cleaning is here to stay, too,” Fox<br />

said. “It’s been a real challenge to meet<br />

the demand out there.” One of the more<br />

popular products Pulse Technology sells<br />

is a backpack device to disinfect a room.<br />

“It’s almost like a fog machine,” Fox said.<br />

The office gets sprayed thoroughly, then<br />

everyone stays out for at least two hours.<br />

When it reopens, 99 percent of the viruses<br />

are gone. “The challenge right now is getting<br />

enough of them to meet demand,” Fox said.<br />

Bleach wipes have been subject to scarcity,<br />

too, but Pulse Technology can guarantee<br />

consistent delivery to companies purchasing<br />

for the long term.<br />

Pulse Technology gets samples of new<br />

products and test-drives everything. “We’re<br />

inundated with all kinds of new solutions,”<br />

Fox said. “We have people who are very<br />

well-schooled, and we are not going to put<br />

any product out there that is substandard.”<br />

The 2020 whiplash<br />

of changes to<br />

work lives came<br />

at a rapid pace.<br />

For some, it was<br />

the challenge of<br />

setting up a home<br />

office. For others, it<br />

was getting accustomed<br />

to videoconferencing with<br />

other workers – and often their<br />

pets. Some had to find new ways to<br />

connect with customers. Still others found<br />

it a challenge to deep-clean the workplace<br />

to protect employees from COVID-19.<br />

Throughout it all, technology heroes did<br />

their best to ease the process of protecting<br />

businesses, their employees and their<br />

customers while helping everyone operate<br />

as efficiently as possible.<br />

Choose passwords carefully rather than using<br />

one that is easily guessed. Use two-factor<br />

authentication when available.<br />
