As companies design their return to office plan for a social distancing environment, extra consideration is needed for office catering.

Office managers are often tasked with building and supporting company culture. However, during this unprecedented time of health and safety concerns, this can be challenging for office managers as companies work remotely. 

Rather than ask “what do office managers do”, the question should really be: “what don’t they do?” But, in the spirit of celebrating and acknowledging the work that office managers do every day and in a crisis, let’s discuss this dynamic role and its importance in the workplace.

Office managers have an important job in managing the day-to-day operations and procedures in the workplace. This isn't easy, considering workforce health and safety is paramount during the current coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak.

You’re in charge of feeding your office and that’s no small feat. Monday’s office meal needs to lift everyone out of a mood while the other weekday office meals should be healthy, fun, fresh and new.

As an office manager, your task list is never-ending and ever-expanding. You don’t have time for frivolous reading or perusing for inspiration. But, you still have to order corporate catering to your office—and your bosses and colleagues expect it to be varied, fresh, delicious, new, inspired, easy-to-eat and on time.
