Here\u2019s a primer on how to ship electronics safely and securely to your employees.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>The \u201cWhy\u201d Behind the Growth of Shipping Electronics<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Employers are shipping more <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">office technology<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to employees for myriad reasons. With the current war for talent, employers are supplying employees with printers, headphones, and laptops in tandem with <\/span><a href=\"\/en-ca\/blog\/innovative-office-technology-trends\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">innovative office technology<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to gain a competitive edge. Shipping laptops that are fully loaded and ready to use from day one boosts employee loyalty and efficiency, as well as reduces technological downtime.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, with pre-installed software often comes tracking software. Apps such as ActivTrak, Time Doctor, Teramind, and Hubstaff all monitor employee time \u2013 from watching keystrokes to analyzing which programs employees are using. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Teramind reported a triple-digit percentage increase in new leads since the pandemic began<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><sup>1<\/sup><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Hubstaff, too, has seen interest in its product skyrocket.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Need for Security &amp; Insurance<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to Gartner research, one <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">laptop<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is stolen every 53 seconds<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><sup>2<\/sup><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. And nearly <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">41% <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">of all data breach events from 2005 through 2015 were caused by lost <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">electronics<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> such as laptops, tablets, and smartphones. As a result, it\u2019s important to declare the value of the items being shipped and understand liability limits from each carrier.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shipping insurance is one of the shipping services that protects shippers against lost, stolen, or damaged packages. If an insured package does not reach its destination or if it is damaged when it\u2019s delivered, then the shipper is reimbursed the declared value of the item or <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">multiple<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> items<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in the package. Of course, you must also file a claim and provide proof of damage or non-delivery. As you can see in the chart below, insurance for a $5,000 laptop, for example, runs about $50.00 regardless of the carrier.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Comparison of Shipping Insurance Rates by Carrier<\/strong><\/h3>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"background-color: red; color: #ffffff;\"><b>Item Value<\/b><\/td>\n<td style=\"background-color: red; color: white;\"><b>FedEx<\/b><\/td>\n<td style=\"background-color: red; color: white;\"><b>UPS<\/b><\/td>\n<td style=\"background-color: red; color: white;\"><b>USPS<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">$.01 -$50<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> $0.00\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> $0.00<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> $1.65<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&gt; $50 &#8211; $100<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> $0.00\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> $0.00\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> $2.05<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&gt; $100 &#8211; $200<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> $2.00<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> $1.05<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> $2.45<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&gt; $200 &#8211; $300<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> $3.00<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> $1.05<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> $4.60<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&gt; $300 &#8211; $5,000<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> $3.00 + $1.00 per<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">$100 in value<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> $1.05 + $1.05 per<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">$100 in value<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> $4.60 + $.90 per $100 in value<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Est.

The most important thing to note is that many an <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">electronic device<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> contains a lithium-ion battery. Since lithium batteries are classified as dangerous goods due to their chemistries, cathodes, and electrolytes, the outside package must clearly indicate their presence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And, if you\u2019re wondering<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201cwhat\u2019s the big issue with lithium batteries\u201d? The crucial issue is that <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a damaged <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lithium battery<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">become an electrical and chemical hazard causing burns, shock, and extreme heat. The IATA (International Air Transport Association) requires any shipping packages containing lithium-ion batteries to have durable labels applied to display the correct information and warnings to ensure the safety of the postal service workers handling or exposed to the item in transit<sup>3<\/sup>. These labels must be printed on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smithcorona.com\/blog\/polypropylene-bopp-labels\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">synthetic materials<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that are tear- and scratch-resistant and have a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smithcorona.com\/blog\/our-smith-corona-label-adhesives\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">resilient adhesive<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> necessary for various climate conditions and environments. (Whew!) Plus, you should label your package as \u201cfragile.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Padding is the Word and the Way to Ship<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The number one secret to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">shipping <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">delicate<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> items <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">safely is padding. Add bubble wrap or packing peanuts; then add a little more padding, just in case. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Electronics<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> including laptops often have small parts that can easily break inside the motherboard if not sufficiently protected.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">electronics computer shipping<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> typically requires two boxes: one for the laptop and another for the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">shipping<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> container. Both <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">box sizes<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> should be surrounded with bubble wrap ensuring that the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">laptop<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is secure. Check on the security of your cushioning by gently shaking the box; if you can\u2019t hear or fear anything moving, you are probably safe.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Smart Lockers: The Safer Alternative to Shipping Electronics<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After padding, boxing, preparing, and insuring a laptop for shipment, it\u2019s easy to see why Quadient\u2019s smart <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.parcelpending.com\/en-ca\/about-parcel-lockers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">parcel lockers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are a faster and safer alternative.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Electronics are securely placed into the <\/span><a href=\"\/en-ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">electronic locker<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> without a need for packaging at all!
