From hybrid offices to flexible work arrangements, these are just some of the buzz words associated with the future of our office environments. If you’re thinking of adapting, reworking or revamping to suit a new way of working, then this blog is for you. We’ve got plenty of ideas on how to make flexible and dynamic offices work for your business and we believe the best place to start to make your office suitable for social distancing is to create more space between each desk. There are a number of ways you can do this which we’re outlining below.
Rearrange the office
If your team has been away from the office or not working at full capacity due to covid, you may be wondering how best to arrange their workspaces when they return. Making your office environment friendly for social distancing purposes may be as simple as rearranging your desk configuration to allow more space between each of your employees’ work stations.
Remove
Making more space may even mean you require less desks or desks of a different style or size. With some second hand furniture companies you can sell your unwanted office desks or do a part exchange. That means a little extra cash in your pocket whilst also creating the space you need for your employees.
Hot Desking
Or, you can always split your team members and delegate certain days when they are in the office or working remotely. This might involve more of a hot desking approach to working. In which case, you’ll want to make sure you have a desk set-up that is flexible and easily adaptable for different employees. You may also want more breakout furniture to offer a more creative and relaxed work space.
If you’re thinking about changing the whole design of your office to match a more flexible and dynamic set-up, these three suggestions are a great place to start.
