A new survey has revealed that the perfect workplace would be located just three miles away from an employee’s home, would include floor-to-ceiling windows with fantastic views, al-fresco board meetings, an onsite gym, and yes us Brit’s are even demanding sun-loungers – in this climate!
The study, which asked 2,000 office workers to describe their dream workplace, has revealed that a free kettle, tea and microwave just isn’t cutting it anymore – employees are wanting more.
A key theme within the results is a desire for an outdoor work life, with many people wanting picnic tables and garden space for summer meetings. Meanwhile, others believed being well fed was key to a happy workforce, with demands for free fruit, a buffet trolley to deliver free cake, an on-site canteen with a rotating menu as well as surrounding cafes for those wanting to eat off-site.
Also high on the demand list was the need for sleek and modern furnishings, leather furniture and a library of industry-related books – something we at the Yorkshire Office Group weren’t surprised to hear about.
In fact, picking the right office furniture is actually extremely important, as it is essentially most of things that will be making up your workplace. Our Wakefield team always tell our customers that when they are picking their office furniture they must consider two key points, and that is ensuring that the furnishings are both practical and visually appealing.
