The changing nature of the workplace

Open plan workspace
The wellbeing of employees in the workplace is becoming more vital, and office furniture can play a huge part in helping to keep people happy and healthy when they’re working. There is no single type of optimal work setting to suit everyone. Instead, it’s about balance. Companies that don’t provide workers with the types of spaces they need to manage the demands and intensity of work will find that this can have a negative impact.

Employees will need spaces designed for collaborative meetings, areas for agile working, opportunities to relax, as well as places to escape to focus on individual tasks, and businesses can design physical workplaces to support it. Different office configurations could be employed depending on whether a group is brainstorming, hosting a training session, or conducting a daily meeting.
