Robert Bowness’s Story

In British Columbia, Robert Bowness is the assistant director of a unit known as “Employer Operations” at BC Pension Corporation. Multiple team members in his group were nervous about going into the office after the outbreak began. Instead of making them go into the office, Robert brought their office to them. He went into headquarters, retrieved each employee’s ergonomic chair and their computer equipment, and then drove it to their homes. He left the items in the driveway or building entrance, text the team member from the car, smiled, waved, (social distancing rules, of course), and then drove back to the office and did it again for the next team member. Before dropping off the equipment and chair, Robert wiped everything down with isopropyl alcohol.
