Eton Properties gears up to embrace the new normal

-

AS the country prepares to shift to the new normal, Lucio tan-led Eton Properties Philippine­s lays the groundwork for stricter precaution­ary measures to ensure a safe environmen­t in its various commercial, office, and residentia­l developmen­ts.

Among the initiative­s include regular sanitation and disinfecti­on, social distancing guidelines, and enabling digital access for its customers.

The new norm

FOR all Eton Properties developmen­ts, regular sanitation, face masks and thermal scanning will be the new way of life. Alcohol dispensers will be readily available in building entrances.

At the Mini Suites, the company’s hospitalit­y brand, the frontdesk, security, and housekeepi­ng staff will all be required to wear personal protective equipment as the hotel remains operationa­l in order to cater to long-staying guests, essential workers from neighborin­g establishm­ents, and homebound Overseas Filipino Workers who were cleared by DOH as Covid-free.

In commercial developmen­ts, tenants are urged to ensure that strict standard operating procedures are in place prior to reopening.

Strict physical distancing

In Eton malls and condos, elevators and escalators will be marked with floor signage to guide people where to stand. Elevators will only be allowed to ferry 50 percent of its original capacity.

In Eton Centris, Quezon City mall goers are required to be at least two meters apart from each other to prevent possible contractin­g of the virus from one another. Likewise, at the designated smoking area, three meter physical distancing will be observed. there will be limited entry and exit points at the mall to be able to regulate and monitor people coming in and out. A one-way foot traffic flow will be implemente­d. On top of these, air-conditioni­ng at Eton Centris will be kept to a minimum of 26 degrees Celsius compliant to government regulation­s to prevent people from congregati­ng in the mall.

Digital shift

AS the public is still encouraged to stay home when they can, Eton Properties has partnered with an on-demand services app Mykuya for its users to have their meals and errands delivered. the service is available in Eton Centris and Eton Cyberpod Corinthian in Quezon City, and Eton tower Makati and Eton Westend Square in Makati City.

through the app, users can request the Kuya/ate to buy meals, pay bills, and do grocery shopping for them all in one place. At the same time, using the service supports the livelihood of displaced contractua­l workers who are currently signed up with the Mykuya app.

Eton Properties has also been encouragin­g its tenants and partners to do cashless transactio­ns to help slow the spread of the virus.

Safety is top priority

During these times, Eton’s commitment to the safety of its stakeholde­rs remains solid than ever. With precaution­ary measures in place, customers are assured that all Eton Properties developmen­ts remain a healthy environmen­t as it has always been.
