IBM has devised a plan to open its office in waves once coronavirus cases begin to slow down.
Dr. Lydia Campbell, vice president and chief medical officer of corporate health and safety at the tech giant, is in charge of the reopening plans for 350,000 employees at the firm. IBM devised its new plan based on government directives, guidelines from public health authorities, and the company's own policies.
Even with these recommendations, it still can be difficult to know exactly how to move forward. Here are the nine exact steps IBM is taking to ensure workers can return to work safely.The firm plans to bring employees who may not be able to do their jobs from home back to work once coronavirus cases begin to decelerate, Campbell told Business Insider.
"We're looking at what the data and public evidence says so we're able to maintain and respect social distancing in our workplaces," she said. Many of the conference rooms in IBM offices can fit between 15 or 20 people, Campbell said. The company is currently reassessing how they can keep these meeting rooms at about half capacity in order to respect social distancing guidelines.
Some international IBM offices offer transportation to and from work, Campbell said. IBM will have to rethink this perk, she said, since it may be difficult to enforce social distancing on public transportation.
