At Basking, we have implemented the concept of <strong>Safety-Adjusted Capacity<\/strong> in order to help the transition. Our <a href=\"https:\/\/basking.io\">Workplace Analytics Platform<\/a> can be used for compliance purposes and for showing employees that you are on top of the situation and it&#8217;s safe to go back to the office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The adjusted capacity feature is an addition to the <a href=\"https:\/\/basking.io\/blog\/new-features\/measure-social-distancing-at-the-workplace\/\">social distancing monitoring at the workplace<\/a> tool we already provide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is safety-adjusted capacity?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Driven by regulators or by the company&#8217;s own guidelines, many offices are open to employees with limitations. The safety-adjusted capacity reflects how much of the office&#8217;s capacity can be used on a regular basis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As regulations and internal guidelines will change over time, we&#8217;re keeping track of these changes on our side. Here are some of the example of such regulations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>US CDC has issued &#8220;<a aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/coronavirus\/2019-ncov\/community\/office-buildings.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">COVID-19 Employer Information for Office Buildings<\/a>&#8221; guidelines, recommending to &#8220;modify or adjust seats, furniture, and workstations to maintain social distancing of 6 feet between employees, where possible&#8221;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>UK Government recommends workplace social distancing of &#8220;2m, or 1m with risk mitigation where 2m is not viable&#8221; in its &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/guidance\/working-safely-during-coronavirus-covid-19\/offices-and-contact-centres\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Working safely during COVID-19 in offices and contact centres<\/a>&#8221; guidelines.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How does Basking handle the adjusted capacity?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Alongside with the capacity of the office (amount of workstations), our users can set up the adjusted capacity as a percentage of the capacity that is enabled for safety reasons and compliance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The adjusted capacity value is visible across the application at the building level:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/basking.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Basking.io-Safety-Adjusted-Capacity-for-Hourly-Occupancy-1024x731.png\" alt=\"Office hourly occupancy with capacity (red line) and adjusted capacity (dotted red line)\" class=\"wp-image-3957\" style=\"width:578px;height:412px\" width=\"578\" height=\"412\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Office hourly occupancy with capacity (red line) and adjusted capacity (dotted red line)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/basking.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Basking.io-Safety-Adjusted-Capacity-for-Daily-Occupancy-1024x568.png\" alt=\"Daily occupancy statistics at office level with capacity line (red line) and adjusted capacity line (dotted red line)\" class=\"wp-image-3956\" style=\"width:571px;height:316px\" width=\"571\" height=\"316\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Daily occupancy statistics at office level with capacity line (red line) and adjusted capacity line (dotted red line)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:44px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The adjusted capacity information is also visible at the portfolio level:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:21px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/basking.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Basking.io-Safety-Adjusted-Capacity-at-Portfolio-Level-1024x630.png\" alt=\"Safety adjusted capacity impact aggregated at portfolio level\" class=\"wp-image-3955\" style=\"width:558px;height:343px\" width=\"558\" height=\"343\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Safety adjusted capacity impact aggregated at portfolio level<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:29px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Normalization of occupancy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you setup an adjusted capacity for an office, users can choose how they can <a href=\"https:\/\/basking.io\/blog\/new-features\/normalization-of-occupancy\/\">normalize the occupancy of the workplace and calculate the occupancy rate<\/a>.
