In the maximum of the case, viruses and bacteria spread can be contagious. As being specific, when someone infected with COVID-19 coughs they release infected fluid in terms of droplets. Most of these droplets settle down in the nearby objects and surfaces.

Materials used to disinfect the workplace?
Different countries have different viruses and bacteria disinfection policies to fight back. Maximum of the workplace even health-care facilities have limited resources of hospital disinfectants. In most of the cases, alcohol and bleach are used as most appreciable chemical disinfectants.
Alcohol:
Alcohol has underrated germicidal effects, and commonly refers to two different water-soluble chemical compounds— ethyl alcohol and isopropyl alcohol. It shows optimized disinfectant characteristics with a 60-90% water-soluble phase and its activity readily drops with a concentration of less than 20%.
Mode of action:
Alcohol denatures the protein layer of viruses and bacteria and unfolds it to make them inactive. It’s proven to be effective on lipophilic viruses (e.g., herpes, influenza, and vaccinia virus) and many hydrophilic viruses (e.g., adenovirus, rhinovirus, enterovirus, and rotaviruses). So, they often used to disinfect the external surfaces of equipment.
Bleach:
It’s an effective and strong disinfectant. Within 10-60 min contact time diluted household bleach can disinfect; thus highly recommended for the disinfection of workplace facilities.
Mode of action:
The main active ingredient of bleach is sodium hypochlorite, which denatures proteins of micro-organism and that’s why is very effective in killing bacteria, virus (including influenza virus), fungi.

Precautions:
Just keep it in mind that these disinfects works mainly works on hard surfaces and can cause permanent damage to most of the soft materials and few dyed fabrics. Alcohol is highly inflammable; so while using one should have an eye for the ventilation of the space. And close the sanitized area for the next 2-3 hours (minimum). Repeated and prolonged use may lead to dislocation, hardening and even cracking of plastic and rubber made materials. Improper use of disinfectants may reduce its effectiveness and can cause throat and skin infection.
