Engine House is COVID-19 SAFE. Our goal is to make all members feel comfortable, safe and confident at our work. Our policy has been created in line with guidelines from the Victorian Government, Safe Work Australia and Office Space Best Practice.
Face Masks
It is no longer mandatory to wear a face mask in all public indoor settings including an office. It is recommended that you wear a face mask when you cannot keep 1.5m from others.
2m2 per person in common areas
There must be 2m2/person in all common areas (eg. meeting rooms). Both Engine House St Kilda and Balaclava meet this threshold very easily.
We provide clear signage in high traffic areas highlighting our new capacity guidelines (inc. meeting rooms and bathrooms)
Physical distancing also applies in private offices. There must be 2m2 of space per person where possible.
To prevent any overflow in private offices, members are welcome to use our flexi desk, kitchen or breakout area seating.
It is no longer mandated by the government to provide a minimum 1.5m distance between members. We will still do our best to seat members with as much space as possible.
Our cleaning contractor will be undertaking additional sanitation services in line with Safe Work Australia guidelines:
Engine House will now be implementing the following sanitation practices for our members and any guests who enter the space:
We will provide disposable plates and cutlery as an additional option for people
Engine House staff members have downloaded the COVID-SAFE app to provide better detection capability at our locations.
