Is It Time To Rent Private Office Space?
Working from home isn’t for everyone.
It’s not outrageous to suggest that 2020 is the year that has changed how we conduct both work and business. Even once the current pandemic passes, the old way of doing business will remain just that — the old way.
Many companies and people are finding that full-sized office facilities are not economically prudent right now. With reduced staff onsite, a lot of space and other resources are going to waste. Bringing more people into the office will only result in increased risk for serious illness.
As companies feel the pressure to downsize, they also feel the pressure to avoid any disruption of business. This means finding a solution to maintaining a professional presence while not breaking the bank or increasing the risk of illness to employees or customers. This also means finding the best way to manage employee productivity during these challenging times.
Because of the need to practice social distancing to slow the spread of COVID-19, many employees found themselves suddenly working from home. While many found ways to adapt and even thrive, many other employees found that their focus and productivity suffered. Working at home often consisted of too many distractions.
