Haider Moranis: Long waits for the elevator, health checks and staggered seating arrangements will weigh on the work culture
As Canada plans to relax restrictions on movements and gatherings, businesses have started to prepare for a staged reopening.
Steve Ichelson, a vice-president with Avison Young, a global commercial real estate brokerage, says his firm is advising owners and tenants on what to expect and how to act as they return to work amidst COVID-19. Avison Young has prepared a back-to-work guide for occupants, covering a broad range of topics, starting with new and improved conventions for communication to inform all stakeholders of the changes in operating protocols even before employees return.
The estimate for the time it will take to populate a tall building to full occupancy with limited elevator capacity ranges between 90 minutes to four hours. Many returning employees might receive a scheduled boarding time for their ride up and down the elevator. That could leave lobbies looking like the long queues at theme parks, as visitors wait for their favourite rides.
