Working in an office - social distancing

so we have been asked back into the office- which is absolutely fine! However there is normally 4 of us in the room but now 3 of us are allowed in!

I am sat back to back with another colleague but I measured and we are just (literally just) 1m apart - with chairs tucked in- would anyone else be a little worried about this?

I have gone to health and safety about this however I don’t feel like I will be listened to that well and just feel like I’m moaning!

Just interested in other people’s opinions or what other people’s offices are like Etc

I’m pretty sure that’s acceptable under 1m plus- in your case the plus is being back
to back

Management dont care in my opinion!

Pretty sure there is less than 1m between us at work but they just want us back in.

Yes quick google suggests 1m is acceptable with extra precautions and back to back and side by aide as listed as examples

No I wouldn't be overly concerned, if you are you could wear a face mask.

I'm back in the office. Our desks are space about 1m apart and due to the nature of the job we have to walk around to go and talk to various people all day. It's pretty impossible to always social distance. We don't wear PPE.

No, I'm not concerned. It is what it is at this point, I'm just getting on with things.
