Covid-19 Policy

Let’s keep safe

Covid-19
Coming to co work at Maven is a inspirational and exciting new journey, where you can collaborate, enjoy our community and get stuff done.  Your safety whilst working at Maven is of paramount importance to us and so please take a moment to read our Covid-19 policy which has been updated on 7th December 2020.

Social distancing

Our desks have been carefully spaced out to ensure at least 2m distance when you are seated.  Our face to face seating areas have been replaced with back to back or side to side seating.

Between each desk you’ll find some arty shielding, in keeping with our design theme of course.  Be it a plant, a curtain or a screen, it’s there to keep you safe.

Arrival and departure

If you arrive at the same time as others, please wait in line outside, keeping 2m distance.  Once the person ahead of you has entered, you can proceed into Maven.  On entry you’ll see the NHS Track and trace app, please check in and use the hand sanitiser provided.

Masks

As when attending a restaurant, please wear your mask on entry to Maven and when moving around inside to make refreshments or visit the toilet.  Once sat at your desk you can remove your mask, but keep it to hand.

Hygiene box

Each desk has it’s own Hygiene box containing a facemask, handwash, wipes and anti bac spray for your table.  Please use these frequently throughout the day and clean down when you leave.

Cleaning

We’ll clean the communal facilities i.e WC and refreshment area regularly throughout the day.  A thorough clean will take place after and before each co-working session.  Handwash will be available at every communal point; upon entry, refreshment area, break out area and WC.  Please use these both before and after you use a communal space.

Are you feeling unwell?

Please cancel or re-schedule your session if you, anyone in your household or support bubble feel unwell and/or have symptoms of Coronavirus  (which include but are not limited to; a high temperature of over 37.8, new continuous cough or loss of change to your sense of smell and taste).

Masterclasses, Mixers and In Person Training Sessions

We’ve taken our events online, but from time to time are still able to carry out small in person training session, by following Covid-19 safe guidelines. In person sessions will have no more than 6 attendees and the desks will be spaced to ensure we meet social distancing guidelines.  When attending an in person session please ensure you adhere to social distancing rules.  Wear your mask whilst moving around and even whilst seated at your desk if you prefer.  Keep your Sanitiser box close to ensure frequent cleaning of surfaces and hand washing.  And remember if you feel unwell, if any of your family have symptoms or if you think you may have been in contact with a Covid-19 carrier then please don’t attend the training.  We will always offer a credit if you have to cancel at short notice.

By looking out for each other we can keep a safe space, so let’s work together!

As always we welcome your feedback so please email natalie@mavencoworking.co.uk with any questions or ideas.

Stay safe
