The COVID-19 pandemic has upraised office and work life, becoming a powerful incentive bringing a change at workplace. Many questions have been raised regarding the sustainability of this new way of working, particularly in terms of workplace productivity due to the sudden and extreme shift in the lives of people. The role and purpose of physical offices in the future is the most fundamental query raised. Newly required policies outlined by government and healthcare agencies around the world must be implemented by the companies in order to return the employees back to work safely. This project aims at developing a wearable design that can be used by the employees at offices for monitoring their oxygen saturation, temperature detection, attendance recording and for self-purchasing at cafeteria. Employees working at offices thereby can return back to their normal working schedule ensuring proper safety measures, thus reducing the global burden caused as a result of the pandemic.
