Effective communication while social distancing in the workplace
Since the Covid-19 Pandemic started, all businesses have had to adjust their procedures so that staff can still work efficiently when spaced at least 2m apart due to social distancing. This has brought fresh challenges to the workplace, as managing staff in a safe and effective manner requires clear communication.
A tour guide system can assist businesses to still function efficiently, enabling management and staff to hear each other over distance without competing with background noise.
Tour guide systems are ideal for-
One-to-one job training for new recruits during increased absences
Management meetings or walk-throughs in noisy areas
Questions and answer sessions or open discussions between staff
A tour group can be any size from 2 to 2,000 people and multiple groups can operate simultaneously within the same environment.
Tour guide systems are generally available in two versions; one-way or two-way.
A one-way tour guide system is used for an individual to speak to a group of people. The tour guide uses a transmitter and tour group members are each issued with a receiver.
Example: A tour guide addresses a group of guests when visiting a business.
These systems include the Sennheiser 2020-D (shown above), Tourtalk TT 40 & Mipro MTG-100.
Some one-way tour guide systems can also be used for two presenters to address a group of people. The presenters each use a transmitter and tour group members are each issued with a receiver.
Example: Two members of staff inducting a group of new employees in a noisy manufacturing plant.
These systems include the Williams Sound Digi-Wave, Listen Technologies ListenTalk, Tourtalk TT 100 (shown above), Tourtalk TT 200, Tourtalk TT 300 & Beyerdynamic Unite.
A two-way tour guide system can be used for a presenter to address a group of people, but the group can have the ability to talk back when the presenter permits. The presenter uses a two-way transmitter and tour group members are each issued with a two-way receiver.
Example: A trainer addresses a group of trainees outdoors. The trainees can ask questions to the tour guide and tour group.
These systems include the Williams Sound Digi-Wave, Listen Technologies ListenTalk, Tourtalk TT 200 (shown above) & Beyerdynamic Unite.
A two-way tour guide system can also be used by a group of people to have full two-way conversations between themselves.
Example: A staff meeting can be conducted on a noisy shop floor.
These systems include the Williams Sound Digi-Wave (shown above), Listen Technologies ListenTalk, AXIWI, Tourtalk TT 200, Tourtalk TT 300 & Beyerdynamic Unite.
