As Indian cities breathe back to life after the choking conditions of the pandemic, we can observe routines returning to a state of normalcy. We can see the workforce returning to offices as economic recovery prevails in some of the biggest cities of India which includes Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Chennai, Bangalore and Kolkata. We believe a wave of transformation is bound to be seen among the workspaces as businesses and offices reopen.

The pandemic presented new and incredible challenges for millions of workers around the world. In just a matter of weeks, organisations had to navigate the shift to remote operations while maintaining employee well-being and regular conduct of operations.‍

A global study by Steelcase found that 11% of employees are highly dissatisfied with their offices and as a result are highly disengaged from their work. It’s also very well known that employees spend almost a third of their lives in the office.

Workplace trends have constantly been changing for the last three decades.

While technology has been the key force behind these trends in the past, we think that cultural shifts and millennial attitudes will majorly influence the upcoming changes around the workspace.

Though the number of people working partially or fully remote has been on the rise for years now, however the Covid-19 pandemic made everyone join the trend.
