Recent research has found that some businesses are investing in luxury rented office spaces to attract staff to work in the office rather than at home.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, working from home became the norm across many businesses. After the pandemic, many were reluctant to return to the office, preferring to continue working from home. Some businesses made it compulsory for their staff to return to the company offices, whilst others provided more flexible working conditions in which some working time at home was allowed.
According to property company Savills, many businesses support the argument that working in the office is more productive. In an environment dedicated to work, these businesses feel staff are more likely to focus on a task rather than be distracted or procrastinate.
Business owners recognise that high-quality offices with top class facilities are the key to attracting people to work in the office environment.
A few years ago, many companies moved to the suburbs, but the latest trends suggest that city or town centre locations are more attractive due to being easy to commute to by public transport, as well as being near shops, cafes and bars.
Modern luxury offices tend to be more in line with company sustainability policies with low energy consumption and solar panels.
The existing offices may be suitable for upgrading but for most businesses, the solution to attract staff is to buy or lease new spacious offices with top class facilities such as gyms, cafes and relaxation areas.
