Creating a Secure & Productive Flexible Office Environment Post COVID-19
The COVID19 pandemic brought a lot of changes not just to the economy but also to the business industry. Many business establishments have been closed and companies are looking for ways to stay afloat.
Before the pandemic, offices were essential to productivity, culture, and a war of talent. Companies competed to have the top office spaces in major urban cities. But when the pandemic hit, everything has suddenly changed. People started working from home since it is the safest option and many businesses have been permanently closed.
According to Gallup, American analytics, and advisory company, more than 60 percent of employed Americans worked at home during the crisis. It is also stated that during the pandemic, many people were surprised how quickly and efficiently video conferencing technologies and other forms of digital collaboration were adopted. According to them, the results have been better than imagined.
Despite the work-from-home becoming a trend, most employees still prefer to go back to working in the office saying that they miss the human and social interaction that the office facilitates. While employees show a strong affinity for the office, they also desire the ability to have the option to work from home 1-2 days per week on average. This is according to a recent JLL global study of 3,000 workers. As a result, the demand for flexible space in the post-pandemic world is expected.
Even these days, most small businesses are already adapting to this new trend. Employees who are also not comfortable with the work-from-home set up started renting a flexible office. Since a flexible office has the same benefits and facilities a traditional office has, this can make employees work comfortably and still be able to socialize.
Flexible offices will continue to evolve because of pandemics and are surely going to play a bigger role in the business industry. Soon flexible office space will be considered as the new normal for office work.
