There is little doubt that managing during the COVID-19 pandemic, and making plans for re-entry to the workplace, has been challenging for building professionals. The epidemic triggered a rapid shift on establishing new work protocols, the handling of facility maintenance routines, dealing with greater sanitization requirements, emergency measures, and new work behaviours. As vaccinations continue to be administered, businesses have had to develop strategies for safe and enhanced re-entry workplace procedures. During the session, a scan of the past year’s trauma and experiences will be shared from a building professional’s perspective. These experiences have strengthened and accelerated new opportunities as we rebuild an optimal workplace. The session will look at different workplace options in the new paradigm.
