V2! Please View this Version - ESC Design - Partner Affairs, National Benefits Administration, Health & Welfare Group

Hello,

 

Attached below please see pictures of the current Health & Welfare Group's

space at the ESC.

 

The Health & Welfare group currently consists of 5 offices with 9 work

stations. 2 of the workstations have minimal space as you will see in the

pictures.

 

Room 1

The pictures below labeled "remote" office currently houses our

Administrator, Associate staff, temporary staff, the team printer, team

scanner and one of our tax documents cabinet. We will always need a 5

drawer file cabinet for tax documents, but not the 2 we have now.

Room 2

The pictures labeled "2 person office" currently houses our Specialists

staff and a file cabinet. We don't expect to need this cabinet a year

from now.

 

We do not expect to need the Bank of Cabinets pictured below a year from

now. We will need the 2 "Remote" cabinets but they should be within our

space.

 

Room 3

Currently occupied by Manager 1 and at times temporary staff, and storage.

 

Room 4

Currently occupied by Team Lead Manager 2.

 

Room 5

The fifth room is occupied by the IT Manager 2 and is almost the exact

same as the "team lead office" except without the 5 drawer file cabinet.

 

What works and doesn't work

Members of the team and our equipment is required by law to be behind

locked doors.

 

We have gone as paperless as much as we can, and expect to archive the

documents in the 6 five drawer file cabinets pictured above by the end of

this Fiscal Year. The entire team could easily work from home as long as

we have access to the firm's systems.

 

In discussing the current work space with the team, the number one

complaint is how spread out we are. 4 of the 5 offices are on the same

wall but 2 are on one side of a hallway and 2 are on the other side. The

5th office is on the other side of the floor, not terribly far in distance

but does not promote communication.

 

After discussing with the team and getting everyone's ideas the space

would work better if...

 

We had 2 rooms, next to each other. 1 room would be shared by the Admin

staff, Specialists, Associate and house our printer, scanner and 2 five

drawer file cabinets on wheels. We would need 6 work stations in 1 of the

rooms. This could be reduced to 4 or 5 work stations depending on work

from home allowed. The second room would be shared by the 3 managers and

house our fax machine and would require 2 work stations. This could be

reduced to 1 workstations depending on the work from home allowed.

 

Ideally each room would have....

l desks on wheels with interchangeable desk sizes, storage and privacy

panels

l lockers (so the desks can be shared if Partner Affairs leadership

decides staff could work from home part of the week)

l one work station with a desk that allows a person to stand and work

l a combination opaque/clear glass wall to comply with the line of site

law and for natural light

l focused lighting

l docking stations

l desktop monitors

l a combination white board/bulletin board

l sufficient electrical outlets and data ports
