Work in the future may be increasingly done remotely.
Remote working can cut employee turnover by up to 25%, boost productivity by 13% and reduce stress for 80% of the workforce. After the COVID-19 outbreak, many organizations are continuing remote work policies, which also help reduce their costs.
Here are 6 factors for remote working locations.
1. Affordability: Compact layout, fast and cost-effective construction.
2. Shared: 24/7 access and facilities such as kitchens plus a rental model.
3. Eco-friendly: Zero-waste design and extensive use of new tech to boost sustainability.
4. Flexibility: Adjustable design and functions.
5. Stylish: Futuristic, aesthetically pleasing design with unique features.
6. Healthy: Built-in wellness amenities such as air purification and a communal wellness center.
Implications for the future:
The new generation spends most of its time mainly communicating online. This will affect the efficiency of remote work. Flexible offices and shared space is also necessary. Challenges may arise from issues such as investment in R&D and cooperation with partners.
