As a workspace provider, we house over 2,200 members and almost 100 staff. It is our belief that we must be in front of this situation, where we can, putting people first and committing to new procedures that empower and support everyone. Moving forward our workspaces may change slightly, but our focus will remain the same, on the service and support of our community. Our planned actions will encourage social distancing, employ higher levels of sanitisation, and improve the overall safety of our building users.
LOOKING AT THE FUTURE OF ICONIC WORKSPACES

WE’VE INTRODUCED
SOME CHANGES
From temperature scanners to coworking plexi-pod workstations we have invested in our staff and community members’ wellbeing to create a safe workspace for everyone. Browse through our gallery to see some of the changes we’ve introduced to create a safer working environment.
WHAT THE FUTURE LOOKS LIKE
We will come together by staying apart.
SAFETY FIRST
Customised safety solutions for all locations, ensuring highest efficiencies and highest safer working environment.
VIRTUAL EVENTS
Until we can gather at our locations, we will continue to host a full calendar of virtual events supporting our community.
Community Support
We continue to ensure buildings remain open and safe, as we support our community remotely, with a phased return on-site.
Evolving Care
Revised house rules, new protocols and safety measures, while we keep our community updated as developments progress.
HOW WE ENSURE YOUR SAFETY
Barrier/Queue system
Queuing system will be at building arrival to encourage safe social distancing entry to all locations, before passing through a scanner to gain access to the workspace.
Sanitiser Stations
Hand sanitisers will be placed at entrances and on walls throughout buildings, located near bathrooms and main communal spaces with signage to encourage usage.
THERMAL CAMERAS
Thermal camera systems designed to detect elevated skin-surface temperature. Everyone must pass through these cameras in order to gain access to their workspace.
CLEANING
Increased frequency of cleaning and sanitisation across our buildings including regular cleaning checklists to be completed by onsite teams.
SIGNAGE
Fixed signage and floor markings to encouraging social distancing, safe use of spaces, one way systems and hygiene care.
RECEPTION SCREENS
Mounted screens on reception desks to protect staff and guests.
Workspace Protectors
These disposable workspace protectors are provided complimentary, in all locations, for use by members, guests and staff in meeting rooms and workspaces, protecting workspace surfaces and therefore, users. These must be disposed of (recycled) at the end of each day.
FOOT PUSH PLATES
Where possible, foot push plates on doors to reduce contact with additional contact free door openers provided for all staff and members.
FRESH AIR / EXTRACT
We will be increasing the fresh air supply and extract in buildings, where possible. This will be accompanied by increased maintenance to ensure maximum output at all times.
HEALTH PACK
Provided for all members and staff, containing a reusable face covering, personal hand sanitiser, disposable gloves and contact free door opener. Contact free door openers are suitable contact free use of elevators, door handles, keypads, and bank machines.
COWORKING
The Iconic Plexi-Pod will be fitted at every dedicated desk at all Iconic Coworking locations. The Iconic Plexi-Pod has been uniquely designed by our Property department to assist in the protection against the spread of illness.
DISPOSABLE FACE COVERS & GLOVES
These will optional, made available for visitors to buildings.
MEETING ROOMS
Meeting rooms will be adjusted to ensure social distancing and safety, reducing capacity and adapting layouts accordingly.
BREAKOUT SPACES
Lounges, break out and communal spaces will be reconfigured to allow for safe capacity levels and social distancing protocols.
EVER-EVOLVING PLANS
These actions are an investment in our staff and members’ well-being and support our efforts to create a safe workspace for everyone. As the current situation is ever-evolving, we will adapt any procedures or systems, as required, in line with HSE guidelines, as it becomes available. Now more than ever, ensuring the health and safety of staff and clients come first. We know that proper controls and procedures can reduce and prevent the spread of the virus. It is through compassion and consideration for one and other that we can foster a healthier workspace for our community.
