Employees are also affected by your office design<\/strong> when it comes to well-being<\/a> and productivity. You should not therefore undertake an office renovation or redesign without careful consideration. Find guidance with the three questions in this article… <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the purpose of my office? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This first question might sound slightly puzzling. An office is just a work space<\/strong>, right? Well nothing could be further from the truth! Today, our working methods are completely different to twenty years ago. Technology has taken on a huge role in our professional lives (in the form of online meetings or working in the cloud, for example), as have creativity<\/a> and flexibility<\/strong>. As employees increasingly work from home<\/a>, you should perhaps view your office as a multifunctional meeting room<\/a>? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the budget for your office design? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It goes without saying that you should set your budget<\/strong> in advance but you must always consider the long term too. Are you planning on spending several years in this office or will you seek out new premises in the not-too-distant future, because you need to grow<\/strong> or wish to explore the potential of new employees? As a result of shortages in the labour market and the war for talent<\/strong>, recruitment and retention are often a question of \u2018going out to find the talent\u2019 rather than \u2018letting the talent come to you\u2019.\u202f <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether your office design is permanent or temporary<\/strong> is bound to affect the amount of money that you wish to invest. Sharing an office building with other organisations in a co-working space will give you greater flexibility in this regard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which legal considerations must I take into account? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Finally, your office design must not only be reconciled with your business, it must also fulfil all the legal requirements of the FPS Employment, Labour and Social Dialogue<\/strong>. The so-called \u2018act of 4 August 1996 on the welfare of employees in the execution of their work\u2019 (in short the \u2018welfare act<\/strong>\u2019) offers rules on the dimensions and volume of rooms, among other things. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Support from professionals <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These initial questions clearly illustrate that there is a lot to think about when designing an office<\/a> or an office renovation<\/a>. It is wise to bring an expert on board. The team at Alternativ will examine the whole puzzle<\/strong> with you \u2013 from acoustics<\/a> and ergonomics<\/a> to sustainability<\/a>. Finally, we will help you find the appropriate furniture<\/a>. Handy, right? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
