Employee Involvement
How are you going to communicate new regulations to all staff? Is there a process for feeding back safety concerns as they arise?
Interior and layout
How can you rework the layout to comply with social distancing? Can you repurpose social space to accommodate extra employees?
Furniture
Can your furniture be washed easily? Do you have flexible furniture which can adapt to your office’s new layout?
Hygiene
Are you equipped to clean and disinfect the office? Can you suggest contactless processes for day-to day tasks?
Work culture
Can you use videoconferencing to avoid crowded meeting rooms? Are you able to stagger work hours so that more employees can use the office?
