Top 4 ways to prepare your office for when lockdown ends

Using business security systems and office security is one thing, but once lockdown ends and the slow opening of business happens, we need to make sure our security strategy persists. This strategy now has to include the presence of coronavirus.
Four areas to think about on return to work are: 

  1. Social distancing

    As much as possible, set out your office or floor to allow workers to use social distancing measures. This can be complicated by the modern open-plan office environment, but the whole idea of hot-desking feels wrong in the current climate.
    One possible way to deal with this is to use a shared home working/office working rota or stagger hours; this helps to space out numbers of employees in the actual workplace at any one time.

  2. Deep cleaning

    Use a deep-cleaning service to clean any areas that are at a high risk of infection. Make sure the service is set up to deal with coronavirus and that cleaners are properly protected using PPE.

  3. Employee symptom monitoring

    If you employ an occupational health service or nurse, they will be able to monitor employees for any signs of COVID-19. If you don’t have access to a dedicated service, you can assign an individual (perhaps your health and safety officer) to keep track of any potential infection. You should consider having a policy in place to deal with employee infection.

  4. COVID-19 tracing apps

    A number of COVID-19 tracing apps are becoming commercially available. Some are being rolled out at a national level. These apps will notify individuals if they have been in close contact with a COVID-19 sufferer who has been tested or even just showing symptoms. The app will then advise an individual to self-isolate for 14 days.
