The COVID-19 pandemic has altered the way humanity operates in the modern world, and experts suggest this shift will have long term consequences, especially in how we work and socialize. Cushman & Wakefield have conceptualized a new concept to keep workers safe while at the office, dubbed the '6 Feet Office.'
The concept was crafted using six key elements. A '6 Feet Quick Scan,' a thorough analysis of the working conditions. The '6 Feet Rule,' a set of rules and agreements that puts everyone's safety first. '6 Feet Routing,' a visually displayed route to ensure traffic flows safely. A 6 'Feet Workstation' that workers can safely use. A '6 Feet Facilitator,' a trained employee that ensures all conditions are met. And lastly, a '6 Feet Certificate' that states all measures have been taken to maintain a virus-safe working environment.
