COVID\u002D19: Poll suggests majority of B.C. workers not ready to go back to the office

Forty-three per cent of those polled felt “somewhat comfortable, while 37 per cent they were not comfortable, including 24 per cent who were “not very comfortable” and 12 per cent who were “not at all comfortable.”

Many said they were concerned about physical distancing when it comes to common spaces like kitchens, hallways and bathrooms, while a similar number were concerned about physical distance when in their actual workspace. Only a fraction of these workers would choose to go back now if it were up to them, and only 18 per cent would prefer to go back in September. Most would go back when there are no more COVID-19 cases or a vaccine is developed.
